Thank you so much for visiting our website which provides you with a window into our school. Thank you for your interest in our school. I hope that our website will provide you with lots of information about us and, more importantly, give you a flavour of what we are trying to achieve as a school for our amazing children and their families.
The primary focus of our curriculum is to Explore, Challenge and Learn. We ensure our lessons are based around the children's questions and ideas by developing a dialogic curriculum, with pupil talk at its heart. Reflection is a key part of our curriculum, with opportunities for pupils to reflect on their learning regularly planned into all curriculum areas.
We have a very hard working and dedicated Governing Body and their role is to help to provide a strategic vision for the school. They work closely with the headteacher to decide on the school's future priorities and then act as a critical friend in monitoring the school's performance and effectiveness.
The Government recently announced an allocation of 450 million to support and improve PE in all primary school over the next three academic years. This funding is based on a basic allocation for school dependent on their size and a further allocation based on pupil numbers. We are working hard to ensure that we achieve the best quality outcomes for all our children using this funding.
What is Pupil Premium? Pupil Premium is extra money that comes into our budget to help us make a positive difference to the educational outcomes of disadvantaged pupils. All schools are entitled to Pupil Premium. It is calculated by the number of pupils we have who are or were eligible for free school meals in the last 6 years or who are identified as looked after by a Local Authority (children in care or foster care).
