REGULAR COMMUNICATION – SECONDARY SCHOOL

The first person to deal with a particular problem is always the teacher directly concerned, followed by the class teacher and the pedagogical adviser. If the problem persists, it is necessary to contact the Assistant to the deputy director who will solve the problem at his or her level or who will decide to refer the case to the Management.

At the beginning of the school year in September, parents/legal representatives will be informed, via SMS, of the following:

  • Who is the teacher, their reception times and how they can be contacted
  • The main topics to be covered in class over the course of the year
  • Textbooks being used in class
  • Mandatory events during the school year

USING Microsoft Teams

If the school has to move online at any time, Microsoft office Teams will be used for teaching and also for any online meetings between the school and parents.

  • During the first weeks of September, teachers will update their class teams to ensure a smooth online transition, if and when the situation arises.
