At The Quest Academy we value and actively nurture parents’ engagement with their children’s education, building on the relationship that often exists between parents and primary school. We believe that your child will achieve their greatest success when staff, students and parents work together.

We will meet with you regularly to keep in touch about your child’s progress. We will provide information electronically so you can keep track of your child’s attendance, behaviour and achievements. We will invite parents to ‘keeping up with your children’ workshops.

We have high expectations of you in the same way that you will have high expectations of us. We believe that your positive contribution is the most important factor in ensuring that your child succeeds.

Email Communication

When we send email messages to parents, we often use a bulk messaging facility which is part of our student data management system. This sends messages via Capita servers and appears to be from [email protected]

As many other schools use the same facility, there can be many thousands of email messages generated each week.

AOL

Unfortunately, AOL’s anti-spam servers often block messages from @capita-intouch.co.uk. This is out of our control.

We recommend you set-up a Google Mail account and set this as your main contact email for messages from the school. You can change this via the Parent Portal. You can configure Google Mail to forward messages on to your normal account which may help with this issue. See: https://support.google.com/mail/answer/10957?hl=en for more information.

BT

BT email users may find messages from us in the spam folder. We recommend you specify the above address as a ‘safe sender’. Please see: http://bt.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/53113/~/using-bt-mails-anti-spam-features for further information.

All other users

We recommend you add [email protected] to the allowed/safe sender/whitelist settings in your email settings. Most email providers publish information on how to do this in their help guides.
