  • Weather Change

    Fri 14 Sep 2018

    As we are aware, the weather has changed quickly, so please can children bring their coats to school. It's cold for them to go out to play at breaktime and lunchtimes without coats.

     

    Please have names on the coats so they can be identified.

  • Treetots

    Fri 14 Sep 2018

    We still have a few places available in Treetots. Please come to the school office for more information or contact FIS at Walsall for a time to start on 01922 653 383.

  • Year 6 Admissions for Secondary School

    Fri 14 Sep 2018

    Leaflets have been sent out today to parents regarding secondary school choices.

    Open days at the schools will be taking place from next week onwards (all details on the leaflets).

     

    All applications must be submitted online. You can make your application online from home, any public library or you can go to the Civic Centre in Walsall where staff from the Parent Support Advice Service will be available to help you submit the application form.

    Please make sure you take an email address with you.

     

    The closing date for applications is 31st October 2018 although Walsall Council recommend that you aim to submit your application by 26th October 2018 as schools break up for half term on that Friday.

  • Attendance

    Mon 10 Sep 2018

    Just a reminder that the school gates open at 8:45am and registers are taken at 8:55am. Any children arriving after this time need to be signed in at the office.

     

    As it's the beginning of a new school year, we would like to inform you of our attendance targets and rewards system.

    Our school target for attendance is 98%. The National target for attendance is 96%.

     

    Throughout this academic year, rewards will be awarded not only for 100% attendance but also those pupils who achieve our school target and the national target.

     

    The names of all children who have achieved one of the target groups each half term will be put into a prize draw with the winners receiving the following awards:

    100% attendance - £30

    98% attendance - £20

    96% attendance - £10

     

    Termly certificates will also be presented in special assemblies to pupils achieving the above targets.

     

    Children's Services Education Welfare Service monitors all pupils whose attendance falls below 93%.

     

    Leave of absence in school term time will not be authorised (unless it meets the exceptional circumstances criteria outlined by the local authority) and may result in a fixed penalty notice being issued.

     

    If there are any issues which may affect your child's attendance, please come into school and have a chat with Miss Nickless.

  • Contact Forms

    Fri 07 Sep 2018
