Policies

School policies cover every aspect of school life. Below are some of our most important policies for your reference. If you want to know our policy on something that is not listed, please ask the school office. Paper copies are available from the school office free of charge.  All our HR and financial policies are adapted from Lancashire County Council policies.

A request for a paper copy of any of these policies (or any other) can be made to the school office.
