Home School Agreement anyone?

[Bagpuss30]

I have just been emptying out the book bags from school and found a Home School Agreement in dd's bag. Have just read it through and it appears to be a series of pledges/ promises that the school make and in turn the parents and child have to sign to say that they will make certain pledges also. I assume it is for us to sign and return (the head and dd's teacher have already signed), but just wondered if anyone else has had such a thing from their school. Also, what happens if we don't sign - there are a few points I disagree with on the document, and also can dd (aged 4) really be expected to understand and keep to her side of it? dh says we should just draft our own version (he is a lawyer ) but joking aside, it does seem rather a heavy handed approach by the school, doesn't it?

I would like to have on ours -

Please do not deal drugs from your car window before/or after collecting your child.

And please refrain from calling your 6 year old a little f'in twt whilst in the earshot of other children with a less wide vocabulary.

I'd like 'Please do not tell your son that teachers only set homework because they are too lazy to do the work in lesson time'

Direct quote that one! Not as bad as the drug dealing granted, but it still irritates!

We have made the whole school grounds non smoking btw

, saggar, are you in Stoke? I thought everyone called each other "duck" round there

Yes Bagpuss - in Stoke. It's the non-drug dealing parents that call you duck
