We appreciate that family time is important however government legislation states that there is no entitlement to this! If you are thinking of booking a holiday please do not do this in term time!
We hope you have a good week off! As always, thank you for your support!
Heading towards the end of term now.
Attendance this week has remained stable. We remain at 96.8% which is still above our target of 96.5%, so this is pleasing!
We still have a few children being pulled out of school to go on unauthorised holidays. Please be reminded that this is not acceptable. It affects your child's learning and their attendance as well as their classes' attendance and the whole school attendance.

It would be amazing to get all 10 classes above our target.
Just a gentle reminder about punctuality, we have had some children late to school this week. We know that this can sometimes be unavoidable, however there are some children that are late a lot. School starts at 8:40 and children that are late might miss some of their learning.
As always, thank you for your ongoing support in getting your children into school.
