The College uses a system called Bromcom to assign homework and track pupil progress. Parents have access to Bromcom either through a website or a mobile app (MCAS). Pupils currently have access via the website. Pupils will create their account as part of their introductory computer science lessons. Parents’ accounts will be set up using the email addresses from the registration form.
Any questions about accessing our systems can be sent to datachanges@combertonvc.org.
The system allows pupils and parents to:
The behaviour log information is directly linked to our Positive Behaviour policy and therefore stores information relating to both rewards and sanctions for your child.
Our staff place respect and courtesy at the heart of our relationship with parents, carers and students. We value communication from parents. We will always endeavour to communicate respectfully and appropriately with parents and carers and expect that this is the manner in which they will communicate with staff at school. The school will not accept any form of abuse or threatening behaviour towards staff.
Communication by email is the preferred method for contacting teachers and staff in school. Teachers want to respond to parental queries at the earliest opportunity and will do their best to do so, however, the majority of teachers’ time is taken up teaching and preparing for lessons. Teachers’ responsibilities extend beyond the classroom, and they may be unable to respond to you on the day a query is made. We have also agreed with staff that there is no expectation to respond to queries during their personal/family time (before 8:00am; after 5pm, and; over weekends and holidays).
Please use staff email addresses if you need to contact staff directly:
Please use the main reception number (01223 262503) to leave a message for a teacher to contact you:
The day-to-day care, welfare and safety of your child is managed by the person who is placed closest to them.
Our preferred method of contacting you is via email. We use a system called CombertonPost with general information for parents and students (you can access this here: /parent-and-student-information/combertonpost). It is important that you inform us as soon as possible of any changes to email addresses or phone numbers (datachanges@combertonvc.org). We produce a weekly student bulletin which has a calendar of events and information relating to the school, this is sent out weekly to parents and carers via CombertonPost.
We use our social media channels to promote student achievements, subject information and generic educational information. We use Twitter (our main accounts are @CombertonVC and @CombertonSF) which we update on a regular basis.
If you have not received a response from the school within three working days please contact the school in the first instance by calling the school reception and asking to speak to the member of staff. If you still haven’t managed to get a response then please email thecollege@combertonvc.org and we will investigate your enquiry. Communication with parents and carers is important to us, and we will continue to monitor this guidance to improve the process further.
