Concerns and Complaints

If parents/carers have any concerns about the welfare or progress of their children it is important to share them with the school at an early stage. Most problems can be resolved quickly when the school and parents/carers work together.

For academic issues, please contact your child’s subject teacher by phone (01773 825281) or by sending an email to school (office@belperschool.co.uk).
For pastoral issues, please contact your child’s tutor by phone (01773 825281) or by sending an email to school (office@belperschool.co.uk).
If you prefer you can send a letter to the school addressed to the tutor or subject teacher.
For more serious matters or if you have a complaint, please contact the School Office (01773 825281 extension 201/280) and you will be directed to the appropriate person in school.

Alternatively if you wish to make a formal complaint, please read our Complaints Procedure and complete a Formal Complaint Form. These may be accessed by clicking the following links:
