Having good relationships and clear lines of communication with parents is vital to the success of Kidsgrove Secondary School. As well as sending parents and carers emails and text we also send letters home. The Arbor (MIS) system is also utilised to share important information and updates.
There is also a Headteacher informal drop-in that takes place every Friday morning from 9am until 10am.
If you would like to contact the school we have two dedicated email addresses for parent/carer to school communications.
These are:
parentsupport@kss.set.org - this is for student specific queries
communications@kss.set.org - this is for general communications or queries
We pride ourselves on ensuring that we have good parent/carer links and that communication is . In our recent parent/carer survey we were delighted with the feedback that we received about the school provision. We had a record number of replies from our parents/carers with our most recent survey and this sums up the excellent links that exist.
