Home School Agreement
A home-school agreement is a statement explaining the school’s responsibilities towards its pupils, the responsibility of each pupil’s parents and what the school expects of its pupils.
We ask that parents, pupils and the headteacher sign the agreement before a child is admitted to Magna Carta.
In light of the coronavirus pandemic, the Home School Agreement has been adapted. Any temporary adaptations are shown in bold italics.
