Accreditation Preparatory Visit Schedule

I am attaching the schedule for the Accreditation Preparatory Visit. If you are named on this schedule you should already be aware of your meeting times. I am aiming for minimal disruption to school life but please be accommodating if there is a need for a small change to our working week as a result of this visit.

If there are clashes or issues that I have overlooked in this schedule please get in touch.

I would love to say that this is the final version but there will almost certainly be modifications in which case I will contact you if you are affected.

Many thanks for your support with this.
