School & Trust Policies

Our school has a number of both school specific and trust wide policies/procedures. For the benefit of all parents/carers and students, we publish both statutory and non-statutory documents. We continually review all school and trust wide policies to ensure continued compliance.

Where a trust policy supersedes a school policy, we publish that specific policy under the trust wide section to eliminate any duplication and confusion.

Policies and procedures are available to download from the three coloured tabs below.

Year 5H award winners 🤩

The Head Teacher Award winner is such an enthusiastic young man who stood out during our DT family enrichment session. He was keen to share his ideas and made a fantastic flat bread dough! 👨‍🍳 👏

The Star of the Week shone brightly last week and was noticed by a school visitor for being helpful and hard-working! 💫

The Citizen of the Week theme was ‘Trust’ this week - this young lady certainly knows what Trust is! A fantastic choice from Year 5 during their class vote. 🇬🇧

Finally, our SMC ticket draw winners got to chose a prize after earning lots of SMCs this week.
Well done Year 5! 💜
