The purpose of the Parents & Friends (P and F) Association is to contribute to the overall efficient functioning of Reddam House Umhlanga (“the School”). It is to add value to the school by supporting the School in any way the P and F sees possible.

Importantly the P and F does not involve itself with issues of governance or the management of the School. The P and F respects the fact that the Directors, Heads of School, and staff of the School have entire responsibility and jurisdiction for the organisation of discipline, curriculum, and teaching methods in the School and the P and F will not be concerned with individual pupils or with members of staff and their teaching.

The P and F will continue to be a positive support for the School and should not be seen as a vehicle for general airing of grievances and complaints. Any grievances and complaints will continue to be handled in the present open door policy.
