COMPLAINTS PROCEDURE
- Parents have a right to have their concerns heard by the class teacher. The Complaints Policy clearly outlines the procedures which teachers must undertake in order to deal with parental concerns.
- Complaints will be dealt with in the first instance by class teachers. Support staff should not directly tackle complaints or concerns but will direct the parents to the class teacher.

Please refer to the school’s Complaints Policy for more details (can be found on the website at www.thornton.leics.sch.uk). The school follows the Symphony Learning Trust Complaints Policy.
A copy of the complaints procedure is also available at the School Office on request.
