Life at Radio City School for Parents & Carers

We know that when a child joins our school, their whole family is part of the journey. That’s why we keep communication open, expectations clear and support consistent so you always feel informed and involved.

Below, you’ll find practical information about day-to-day life at Radio City School.

Our school builds effective relationships with parents and carers, who can play an important role in supporting their child’s education and development. Where appropriate, we will identify and work with others who provide the supportive role to the pupil, such as placing authorities. Communication is regular and open, we provide daily progress updates, as well as consulting on next steps in their education and care.

Our Head Teacher and Deputy Head offer an open door policy to parents and professionals, ensuring they are accessible and approachable and communication is effective and two-way.

We also invite parents and carers to join our forum where they can share their views on Radio City School and have their say about what works for their child, and what improvements they would like to see.

Staff provide young people with opportunities which help them to develop their individual interests, strengths, and skills. All staff work hard to identify barriers to learning and strategies to help young people to self-regulate. They identify young people’s personal interests and use these as ‘learning hooks’ when planning tasks. This often leads to better engagement with learning.
