We're really happy with that level of communication, re school events etc. Apart from perhaps the website!! No, its just trying to get in touch with teachers with regards discipline etc., its as if you can't question or challenge anything ,and getting any response to letters emails etc. is very difficult. It makes us feel very vulnerable and isolated, that's why I was wondering if anyone else had experienced issues like this, as it would be great to chat them through, in fact if anyone has a new kid at any secondary school I would love to hear if this is just normal at 'big' school I don't want to put a downer on the school as most of it seems fantastic and our kid is really happy most of the time.

Sorry, I didn't think I was being negative, I was just asking for other peoples experiences as that was how we feel. I am quite surprised by your reaction

I have a child at the Charter and whilst mostly mostly positive, we are feeling quite let down with regards communication with the school. Is there anyone else out there who finds it difficult to be listened to. The school constantly harps on about the parent/school partnership whilst seemingly ignoring any concerns we might have.
