Communication Procedures & Code of Behaviour
The Tumbleweed Community strongly believes that the open and direct
communication contributes to a strong and positive preschool community for our
children, parents, parent executive and committee and our teaching staff. Issues or
problems can best be resolved if they are discussed with the teaching staff and/or
the personnel executive as soon as possible.
This document is a general guide for ensuring effective communication from
parents to teachers and provides guidelines for expected behaviour of parents/
guardians while on Tumbleweed grounds.
PARENT COMMUNICATION AND RESOLUTION PROCEDURES
1) Present your concern to the teaching staff
a) Explain your concern in a calm and respectful manner
b) Be sure, when stating your concern, to focus on the issue
c) Avoid blame, threats or criticizing teachers in front of your child, as it
creates confusion for your child and does not resolve the problem.
2) Allow for a reasonable timeline for addressing and resolving the concern
a) Please be patient and allow the teacher some time to investigate and
resolve the issue.
b) The teacher may suggest a Formal Resolution Meeting (see #4)
3) Maintain an openness to receiving resolutions to the concern
a) The intentions of the resolution should be focused on the shared best
interest for every child at Tumbleweed.
4) Formal Resolution Meeting may be requested
a) The teacher must be informed in writing if any party involved is not
satisfied with proposed resolutions
b) Teachers will complete and INcident Referral Form and a Formal
Resolution meeting will be scheduled
c) Parents, teachers, personnel executive and other executive members
such as the president or vice president will collaborate to address the
concerns of those involved and determine the best resolution.
d) If parents/guardians fail to uphold the resolutions as determined at the
Formal Resolution Meeting, their child may be removed from the
program
5) Ensure confidentiality by those involved is maintained throughout the process
