In case of emergency it is important that we can contact
someone
Reception is currently manned between
the hours of 8:15 a.m. and 4:30 p.m.
All Heads of Department and Heads of
Year have voice mail. If the receptionist cannot gain
a verbal response from a member of staff you will
be asked if you would like to leave a message on the
staff members voice mail. Staff generally check their
voice mail daily and are asked to return your call
within 48 hours*.
For those members of staff who do not
have access to voice mail a message will be placed,
by the receptionist, in a names pigeon hole. They
are asked to respond to all calls within 48 hours.
*Please note: anything
electronic can have a tendency to occasionally go
wrong. If a call is not returned there is a chance
that the message did not get saved. Please try again.
