Home School Agreement
At Ysgol Estyn we have always emphasised the importance of school and parents working together in partnership. We believe that commitment to this partnership is essential if each young person is to achieve their full potential.
School's Commitment

- Keep you informed about general school matters and your child’s progress in particular.
- Inform parents of matters for praise or concern affecting their child’s work or behaviour.
- Set homework on a regular basis to assist your child’s learning with an emphasis on high quality rather than volume.
