Communication
Keeping in Touch
Did you know that LCA has a Facebook page? www.facebook.com/lincolncarltonacademy
We use this platform to share learning and events that have been happening across the school each week. It’s a great way to keep up-to-date. Please like our page!
In our aim to be a paperless school, we currently send all letters and communication through a FREE app you can download to your phone or device:
It’s a great way to stay informed as notifications pop up instantly and you can keep up to date with all the relevant information related to your child’s class, pupil and parent details can be checked and updated, you can check your child’s attendance and view any published reports. Class teachers can also communicate directly any messages relating to the class or your child.
All parents/carers on our system will have an account by default (username is the email we hold on record) and will simply need to use the password reset function to set a new password. If you have any problems during this process, please contact the school office – enquiries@lincolncarlton.anthemtrust.uk
· Download from android or apple stores
· To register your account, enter your child’s details when prompted.
· Until then just follow our main page.
Talking to your class teacher
It is important that you always have a line of communication directly to your child’s class teacher. This isn’t always easy on the gate in the morning as teachers are welcoming children into the classroom. For this reason, we provide teacher email addresses so that you can contact them directly. Most teachers are in school by 8am and don’t leave until 5pm so they will make contact with you at these points.
Specific Questions or Concerns
In some cases, you may not feel that the best person to talk to is your child’s class teacher. Here is a list of queries you may have and who to get in touch with.
