At William Torbitt Primary School we run a range of parent workshops throughout the year. We see these as an important part of school life, and is crucial in ensuring that links between school and parents remain strong and work to support the children’s progress. Workshops are run at a variety of times, so that parents with varying commitments or hours of work are able to attend.

This area of the website is to enable parents who were unable to attend to access the information given.
