How to Decide which School is Best for your Child
To help decide which school is best for your child, consider the following:
What are your child's needs and interests? Will the school be able to cater for them?
Is the school reasonably close to home, work and carers?
What facilities does the school offer? Are you comfortable with the feel of it?
What are the school policies on homework, discipline and safety?
Are other services available such as after school care?
Parents may wish to ask prospective schools:
the size of the school
when to enrol
teaching methods and classroom environment
uniform policy
school hours
levies
assessment and reporting procedures
available resources
extracurricular activities
communication between home and school
student participation, e.g. school council
parental involvement, e.g. parents and citizens' association.
Copies of the school rules or code of conduct, newsletters, prospectus and annual report will give you further information about the school and its activities.
