As we come to the end of another term I would like to take this opportunity to acknowledge and celebrate the school’s success:
• the continued support of parents and carers
• the continuing good behaviour of our pupils
• a stable, committed and hardworking staff team
• the improved attendance
• the improved assessment outcomes across the school
• the high attendance by parents at school events including parents evening, workshops, Eid presentation, Cultural Diversity Events, Coffee Mornings, the Year 3 performance.
• the PTA pantomime
• the link and support of our Zambian partner school
• the commitment of our governing body
• the improved reputation of the school within the local authority.
• the volunteer programme
I would like to thank all parents who attended the coffee mornings and gave us honest feedback. As a staff team we are committed to responding to the feedback and addressing issues raised, and I will be organizing another such morning early next term.
Staffing Update Sadly, we will be saying a fond farewell to a key member of the senior staff team, Alison Dreese, assistant headteacher. After careful consideration, Alison will be taking early retirement from January 2012. I am sure you will join me in thanking her for the great contribution to the school, especially to Early Years and the development of young teachers. Her departure leaves a huge gap within the school. On behalf of all pupils, parents, staff and governors, I wish Alison all the very best for the future. She will continue her contact with the school as a consultant, and the carer of the 2 guinea pigs she has given to our Early Year pupils.
We will also be welcoming back Safiyyah Ikram from maternity leave. She will be providing cover and support across Years 1-5 on 3 days a week.

Change of Morning Routine Thank you for your support with this change of routine. Overall, the start of the day is much improved. However, I would like to clarify that the school times have not changed. We are simply addressing the issues of congestion, bad weather, punctuality and the pressure on the car park. The gates will not open any earlier than 8.45am. Please also help us by sending in money for trips or arrears in envelopes that are clearly labelled with your child’s name and class, so that these get to the correct collection box and can be handed in to the senior member of staff on duty at the gate and/or doorways.

Change to the start of the school day from Monday 28th November In order to ensure a smooth start to the day, address the issue of congestion in the playground and reduce the pressure in the car park, from Monday all children can come straight into their class from 8.45am. Teachers will no longer come down to collect the children but will be ready in class to receive them. The aim of this is to ensure a steady flow through the car park, avoid delays on the part of the teacher, get children into a warm environment and improve punctuality. Designated staff will be appointed to the doorways to ensure security and safety. Teachers will bring the class down at the end of the day as usual. I would ask for your support in ensuring that this goes smoothly next Monday onwards.
