Volunteering at Talbot Primary School

The Governors, teachers and young people in our school all appreciate the special support that adult helpers give both in and outside the classroom. Adult helpers come from a wide variety of backgrounds and bring with them a range of experience and knowledge that enriches and supports the work of the school.

Adult helpers may assist in one or more ways:

  • In the classroom
  • Back-up support tasks
  • On school trips

Adult helpers usually regularly assist with one or two classes.  However, they may, from time to time, be asked to assist around the school in different capacities.  Other Adult Helpers may assist only on specific occasions, such as school trips or sports days.

If you are interested in volunteering, please see Mrs Helen Triplow (H.R Officer) to obtain a volunteer pack to start the DBS process.

On commencing your Adult Helper role, you can expect to receive an induction covering aspects such as the role itself, school culture and ethos, confidentiality, evacuation procedures, health and safety, first aid, no smoking policy, etc.
