Services
The school needs to be fully informed of medical conditions that might affect a child in school, notably diabetes, asthma and allergies. We adhere to the guidance on administration of medicines in school issued by the Department for Education. Please read our Managing Medicines Policy. Incidents of head lice occur from time to time.
We believe that the partnership between home and school is vital to the wellbeing and progress of each child. Parents/Carers and staff need to have a shared understanding of the aims and purposes of the school and good communication between us both is essential. You are always welcome to come into school to learn more about your child's work, take part in activities, and to explore ideas about how we can work together.
Schools were allocated funding to support low-income families who were eligible for free school meals, looked after children and those from families with parents in the Armed Forces. Families can check eligibility and apply for Pupil Premium funding either by the school office or using the link here.
Chidham Parochial Primary School aims to be a school where all our pupils feel happy, safe and respected. This year, we are working towards recognition as a "Rights Respecting School". This is an award which is given to schools on behalf of UNICEF. UNICEF is the world's leading organisation working for children and their rights.
