Dear Parents

In the spirit of ‘Eco’ and keeping paper usage to a minimum, I’m aware that I haven’t written to you for a while. However on this occasion we have something to celebrate as a School!

I am enclosing out SIAS (Diocesan) Inspection Report which I would urge you all to read. Following our very successful OFSTED Inspection, as a church school we also have to have an inspection conducted by the Diocese. We are delighted with its content as it mirrors many of the very positive comments from OFSTED. In particular a ‘SIAS Inspection’ will lay great emphasis on the behaviour of pupils, their attitude to learning, relationships between pupils and staff and the whole ethos of the school. So thanks to all of you, pupils, staff and parents!

Debbie Tokelove, who is our Breakfast Club Assistant Leader, will be leaving us shortly so there is a vacancy for anyone who is interested. In addition, I would like to appoint one or two persons who could cover in the event of sickness etc. If you think you might be interested please enquire at the Office as soon as possible.

We will shortly be changing our uniform supplier to the National Schoolwear Centre in Taunton. This means the School will no longer be ordering stock however you will be able to purchase our uniform, with logos, through the shop in town; we hope parents will find this quicker and more convenient. We still have some stock in School at the moment so if you would like to purchase any items please enquire at the Office. Thank you.
