New Initiatives

Communication and Relationships with Parents   

·         We will aim to send all newsletters and other communications home on Thursday. To assist with this please ask your child on a Thursday for letters and check their bags. We will also indicate letters in the Home School Diary.

 

·         Each Wednesday 3.15 - 3.45pm there will be a parents 'drop in' for quick questions and concerns. Please enter through the main door signing in at the school office. Longer appointments can still be made by making an appointment through the school office. 

 

·         We are considering the arrangements for parent’s consultation evenings.

 

·         Home   School Diary proves to be an important means of communication. 

Behaviour

• The school staff are reassessing this and re-establishing agreements and expections 

Homelearning  

·         This year again we are planning to focus on the pupils who fulfil their homework tasks. Too much time and energy can be spent chasing the children who choose not to do their homework.

 

·         All pupils will be set homework/home learning, as outlined in the school policy and brochure.

 

·         This will involve a whole range of activities and tasks and won't always require formal written tasks.

 

·         Parents will be notified where pupils continually choose not to complete tasks.

 

·         We would encourage all parents to encourage their child to complete homework.  Children who have support from home and regularly complete homework make considerably better progress in school.
