SATs Week Year 6 parents, please note that SATs will take place from Monday 12th to 16th May. Absences for Year 6 pupils will not be authorised unless medical evidence is provided or exceptional circumstances apply. Therefore, please make every effort to bring your child to school on time.
Main Car Park Yet again, I have received reports of aggressive behaviour from the parents who are using the car park. Using profane language, especially in front of children is NOT acceptable!  Everyone has a right to use the car park and this behaviour cannot be tolerated. I would ask the lady who regularly comes through the NO ENTRY sign (registration T200FAN) to be more considerate and a better role model for her own children.
