At St Thomas More our aim is to improve the efficiency of our communication, by reducing our use of postal mail and increasing our use of email is one of our key aims. Benefits include reducing the schools carbon footprint, saving money and being able to communicate quickly and effectively. To do this, it is vital that the school holds accurate contact details for parents and carers.
