"Gawber is a positive and 'open door' school"
Parent Partnerships
Our partnership with parents is essential to the success of the school. Children are aware that both home and school are working together for their good.Teachers are experts in education and parents are experts in the hopes and needs of their children.We have a very active Parent Teachers Association which organises educational, social and fundraising activities. All parents are welcome to join the PTA.
Parents are always welcome in school and we operate an 'open door' policy.
Parents in SchoolParents are always welcome in school to speak to staff or the Headteacher, or to assist within classrooms. Parents intending to visit school to speak to teachers are requested to have regard for the timing of their visit so as to be of least detriment to the pupil contact time of the teacher. Please try to arrange a mutually convenient time for confidential discussions.
Gawber Primary School see the involvement of parents in the classroom as a positive asset which improves the efficiency and variety of skills offered here, as well as presenting the children with that vital link with home and the community which gives learning a greater relevance and purpose.
**Parents' car parking space is available at the bottom of the school drive behind the local Church Hall.

Gawber Parent Teachers' Association help in furthering the aim by assisting throughout the year in the organisation of social events, fund-raising activities and educational outings.
An extremely active group of parents meet regularly in school to plan and review these provisions. Any parent is welcome to attend these meetings and if possible contribute ideas and observations, which may enhance future events.
