Keep up to date with all the latest news happening in school at the moment.
Owing to unforeseen circumstances beyond our control, the date for Sports Day has had to change.
The school tries to plan in advance as much as possible, however, this can lead to changes when other other externally arranged commitments are set on a later date.
We apologise for any inconvenience.
The date is now Wednesday 28th June.
In today's assembly, the theme was 'Equality and Diversity'.
Children were asked to consider what was meant by 'family', and in particular how some families are different to others in their make up, i.e. single parent families, gender diversity and the concept of families living in separate homes.
We always ensure that themes are explored sensitively and respectfully and the children of Ashgate Primary school always reciprocate this in their responses. On occasions, they can be overtly linked to the RESPECT agenda, or key British Values, and on other occasions, wider discussions that reflect the positive ethos we support in the school.
Should your child discuss any of the themes we share in assembly and you would like support discussing them, please feel free to contact the school.
As a school, we are here to support the community as a whole, which means we are happy to support you.
Last term, parents were given the opportunity to complete a questionnaire, to help inform the School Governors and Senior Leadership Team of your views and experiences at the school.
We were delighted with the number of responses, which were in excess of 140, the largest sample ever received.
The outcomes are published on the 'About Us' link on the home page. Figures are presented as percentages.
There is a clear, positive trend evident throughout the year by year comparisons, with marked improvements in the vast majority of criteria. Deeper analysis is being undertaken to analyse and cross reference the very useful parent comments shared and to assess how we can improve the experiences individuals have at Ashgate Primary School.
As with my first year as Headteacher, I will provide a 'You said, we did' in response to individual feedback.
Many thanks to all those who responded.
