Class Dojo at KWPS
At Kirkham and Wesham Primary School, we use Class Dojo as our main platform for communication between home and school. It enables us to share important information, celebrate children's achievements and keep families informed about school life.
We believe that strong partnerships between home and school help every child to thrive. Class Dojo provides a safe, secure and convenient way for parents and carers to stay connected with their child's learning and the wider life of the school.
What We Use Class Dojo For
Class Dojo is used to:
- share whole-school news and announcements
- celebrate children's achievements and successes
- share photographs and learning from the classroom
- remind families about upcoming events and activities
- communicate information about trips, clubs and enrichment opportunities
- send messages between parents and school staff
- celebrate our school values of Kindness, Resilience, Equity, Honesty, Responsibility and Pride.
Messaging Staff
Parents and carers are welcome to contact their child's class teacher through Class Dojo for routine queries.
Teachers will respond as soon as reasonably possible during normal working hours.
Please note:
- Class Dojo messages are not monitored continuously.
- Staff are not expected to reply during evenings, weekends or school holidays.
- Responses may take longer during particularly busy periods.
If your message is urgent, please contact the School Office directly.
Attendance
Class Dojo must not be used to report pupil absences.
If your child is absent, please contact the School Office by 9.05am on the first day of absence.
Telephone: 01772 682866

This helps us ensure all children are accounted for safely each morning.
Safeguarding
Class Dojo should not be used to report safeguarding concerns or emergencies.
If you have an urgent safeguarding concern about a child, please contact the School Office immediately by telephone.
Respectful Communication
We ask all members of our school community to communicate respectfully and courteously at all times.
Messages should be polite and constructive so that we can continue to work together in partnership to support every child.
