Our Staff

The school always welcomes contact from parents, and our goal is to ensure that you have an appropriate and helpful response to your communications. Your child’s mentor should be your first point of contact.

Our office team will pass on a message to the relevant staff member if they are not available. The staff member will always try to respond as soon as possible, but contact should be made within 2 working days. Urgent calls will be transferred to the most appropriate senior member of staff if the requested staff member is not available. Personal appointments should always be pre-arranged to enable the meeting to be efficiently run and for staff members to have the relevant information to hand. Our policy for managing home/school communication can be read in full on the website.

Staff will always endeavour to acknowledge letters and emails within 2 working days. However, as some situations may need further investigation, you may not receive a full response until after this point. The school can be contacted by email on office@bassingbournvc.org. If you wish to contact a member of staff by email, please use their initial and their surname followed by @bassingbournvc.org. i.e. for Andrew Teacher this would be ateacher@bassingbournvc.org.
