I Can Help

We have held "I can Help" parent sessions throughout the term, sharing information on how we teach phonics, reading, writing and maths and how parents can help at home. The presentations that we used in the sessions can be found in the "Files" section below.

Penalty notices

There will be changes to how penalty notices are issued as the Government wants to make it more consistent, nationally. The changes will come into effect on 19th August 2024. For more information, download the flyer from the 'Files' section at the bottom of the page.

Communication between school and families

We want to have a clear system in place that helps parents know how to contact school, and likewise what to expect back from school. As a result, we have written a policy outlining expectations for both parents and school. You can find this in the files section below. It is also available on the policy tab.
