Other Committees are set up, as required, eg a committee for hearing a grievance. If you have any concerns or queries you should contact the school so the matter can be discussed with the Headteacher. If a parent is still concerned about an issue, formal written complaints may be made to the Governing Body, details of the procedure are available upon request.
