For Enquiries
For enquiries, please contact the school via our Office - our Admin team will usually be able to deal with your query, though sometimes they will need to consult with another staff member. The Office is open from 8.45am until 3.45pm (3.30pm on Thur/Fri), and you are very welcome to pop in - or you can of course ring or email us - details below. Our Office opening & times are here. Parents/carers can also contact school via the Arbor app (all parents have been provided with log-in details, and we currently have 96% take up).
Please note that parents/carers can briefly catch class teachers daily at the start or the end of each day, when dropping-off or collecting your child, and for a longer discussion an appointment can be made.

Social Media
Our main social media is Facebook. We use our two Facebook accounts to keep parents up to date, and to celebrate learning. We have found over the years that parents/carers prefer Facebook, so we have gradually shifted to Facebook as our main social media platform.
Though we do have X and Instagram accounts, we rarely use them nowadays, but maintain them simply to give the school a 'presence' on those platforms and the ability to view other education-focused content.
We have a You Tube channel, simply as a mechanism for adding videos to our website.
- Facebook - School: www.facebook.com/GrangetownPrimary
- Facebook - Little Butterflies Nursery: www.facebook.com/LittleButterfliesGPS
- X: Grangetown_PS (used only very occasionally)
- Instagram: grangetown_ps (used only very occasionally)
- You Tube: our You Tube channel is available only via direct links for each video - see the videos here.
