P
arental involvement
The Lyndhurst House parent body is very positive and friendly and the School works in close partnership with parents.
Parents are always welcome to contact the School to raise any points they wish to discuss. The first point of contact will normally be the Class Teacher, who may refer them to the Subject Teacher or, if appropriate, to the Headmaster.
The Headmaster regularly meets parents at events at the School and is always glad to see parents over individual issues if they wish.
General information about the School is conveyed to parents by a weekly Newsletter, "The Bulletin" (the current issue of which can be seen here by existing parents only - it requires that you log-in with details provided by the School ), and by other communications from time to time.
Individual information about each boy is contained in his Report Book, which is completed termly, and in grades for work issued during the term. These are brought home to parents.
For details of the most recent homework, please visit http://www.lyndhursthouse.net/homework.
There is a Parents' Evening for each year-group, and two per year for the Pre-Prep, so parents can discuss their son's progress directly with teachers. Appointments at other times can easily be made through the School Office.
Parents are encouraged to attend School matches, plays and concerts in which their sons take part.
In accepting a place at Lyndhurst House, parents agree to accept the School's aims and ethos, subscribe to the School's values, and uphold its requirements of attendance and its rules.
