  • Our curriculum content for the subject can be accessed by clicking on the tab for ‘Curriculum’ and then ‘Relationships and Sex Education’.

   

  • The governor approved policy is available by clicking on the tab ‘Important Information’ and then ‘Policies and Documents’

• Welcome to Miss Kaur, who joins the Year 1/2 team.

  Thu 19 Oct 2023 Mr Seargent

  Dear parents and carers

   

  I am pleased to announce that following a rigorous recruitment process the school has appointed Miss S Kaur as class teacher in Year 1/2.  She is the permanent replacement for Mrs Sahota who departed from school at the start of the academic year.

   

  Miss Kaur will be an excellent addition to what is already a strong Key Stage 1 team and I am sure you will take the opportunity to welcome her to the school community.

   

  It goes without saying that the school thanks Miss Dineley for stepping in temporarily during the recruitment process.
