Parents

At Harborne Academy we believe our partnership with parents and carers is extremely valuable. We are extremely lucky to work with so many engaged and supportive parents and see the benefits of this relationship daily. When parents and staff work together to support and encourage our students, the students thrive.  We work hard to ensure our parents are actively involved in their child’s education and that parents are given information and feedback regarding their child’s time at school..

We hope these pages help you with all the information you need regarding our expectations, uniform, the school day and our key policies. The flowchart provides a guide to the apps we currently use. Click here for Frequently Asked Questions. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any queries or concerns.
