Here are Whitegate End we are striving to create a hub where everyone belongs: children, staff and our families including the wider community. We work closely with agencies to ensure we have the most up to date information for the needs of our families. 

Our Pastoral Team consisting of Mrs Bingham and Mrs Addyman are always here to help. If you have any questions or concerns please just catch them at the start/end of the school day and we can arrange for you to come in for a brew and a chat. 

Please see below for further information as to the support on offer for our families.
