    • Arbor Portal - Students & Parents

      Published 04/04/25, by Monica Freeman

      Transition from Class Charts to Arbor

      After Easter, we will be consolidating all aspects of school communication  - including behaviour tracking and homework – onto Arbor, the platform we already use for attendance, finances and communication.  This change will take effect from Tuesday 22nd April.  We believe it will provide a more streamlined and efficient experience for both parents and students.

      Why the change?

       By using one platform for all key school updates, we aim to:

      • Make it easier for parents to access all information in one place.
      • Improve communication between home and school.
      • Ensure a more consistent and user-friendly experience for families.
