Who do I contact if I am concerned about something?
In most cases, your first point of contact should be your child’s class teacher or tutor.
Our strong system of pastoral care helps us identify concerns quickly and address problems before they escalate. If you have any concern, academic or pastoral, please contact your child’s teacher or tutor in the first instance. They can resolve most issues or advise on next steps.
You can do this by:
- Sending them an email
- Contacting Reception to arrange a convenient time to speak
A full staff list is available on our website.
In most cases, staff can be emailed using the format:
surnameinitial@leweston.dorset.sch.uk
There are a few exceptions:
- Well Being Hub: wellbeinghub@leweston.dorset.sch.uk
- Director of Boarding, Mrs Simkins‑Smith: simkinsb@leweston.dorset.sch.uk
- Headmaster, Mr Paget‑Tomlinson: head@leweston.dorset.sch.uk
We aim to resolve all issues at this level. If your query needs wider attention, it will be escalated through the Head of Year or Director of Boarding to the Senior Leadership Team. Throughout the school, all parties work closely together to ensure the best possible outcome for your child.
Any formal complaint should be addressed directly to the Headmaster, and parents are always welcome to email him about matters of particular concern. The school’s full Complaints Policy can be found on the website.
