Raising concerns appropriately and productively Sample Clauses

Raising concerns appropriately and productively. The College is committed to the education and wellbeing of each student. It is therefore critical that Parents are able to raise genuine concerns and grievances they may have about such matters in an appropriate, constructive and respectful forum.

While the College will always take into account the interests of the parent’s child, the College must ultimately make decisions that take into account the interests of all students (and others who may be affected by the College’s decisions). – Parents should recognise that just as the College will seek to respect each student’s privacy, the College will also respect the privacy of other members of the College community.
