As a school we try very hard to make communicating with staff easy.
If you have a message about absence you MUST either email the office using absence@frjs.co.uk OR use the feature inside the Arbor app.
- CLASS DOJO - All of our classes use “Class Dojo” to record smileys. We know that there is an option inside that app to contact the class teacher. This is the preferred method of contact in our school. Please DO NOT use this for urgent messages during the school day. Teachers will not check their accounts all the time as they are teaching. Your important message will be missed if you use this method.
- SCHOOL PUPIL PLANNER - Please use this for simple messages into school and absence notes etc. These are checked each day so they are a reliable message system.
- EMAIL - If you have a detailed concern or worry, please use the appropriate staff email address. They are simply the staff member’s name followed by @frjs.co.uk. e.g adrianantell@frjs.co.uk.
- FACE TO FACE - We know this is the best means of contact, but we know it is not always possible for everyone, particularly at the current time. We have senior staff on the main doors each morning and teachers are usually available after school if you need a quick word.
PLEASE CONTINUE TO CONTACT THE SCHOOL OFFICE if you have information that needs to be passed on during the school day. Teachers are obviously VERY busy during the day and checking messages is not their top priority.
If you contact school after 5pm you will have to wait until the next working day for a response.
Staff email addresses can be found in the document below.
