Establishing a good partnership with parents is a priority for everyone here at Intake Academy.
We firmly believe that a successful school is a result of the combined efforts of staff, pupils, parents and carers and we encourage you to take an active role in your children’s education. We aim to be as transparent and open as possible in all we do and we welcome any questions or suggestions that you might have about your child or about Intake Academy in general. We will work hard to ensure that we communicate regularly with parents and carers and that you are always up-to-date with our activities and our plans for the future.
Parents’ evenings take place regularly.
We encourage parents to join us to learn new things or help us in a range of ways. Intake Academy exists to serve all the community to contribute to its well-being and regeneration.
