The role of parents and other adults at Tuckswood School

We welcome the enormous contribution that parents and other caring adults make to Tuckswood School, and encourage them to help and join in with all our activities. We value parents support in encouraging their children to learn, to read and enjoy sharing a love of storybooks, poetry and rhyme. We see a positive partnership with parents as being the most effective way of developing children's learning and sense of values (see 'Parents as Partners').

We appreciate the skill, experience, commitment and hard work of our learning support assistants and school secretary. The caretaker and cleaning staff help to create and maintain a clean and safe environment for your child to work and play in. The Norfolk Catering service, dining assistant and Mid-day Supervisors play an extremely important role at lunchtimes by encouraging independence and personal hygiene. All of these people are part of the 'Tuckswood Team'.

We are fortunate to have the support of the following experts:

• English as a Second Language Teacher
• Speech and Language therapist
• School Health Adviser
• School Doctor
• School Dentist
• Education Welfare Officer
• Learning Support Teacher
• Educational Psychologist
