In the summer term we also achieved reaccreditation for the Lancashire Behaviour Quality Mark. We were awarded the highest possible achievement by gaining the GOLD reaccreditation in all six areas.

1.Behaviour policy and procedural frameworks

2. Attitudes to school and learning

3. Conduct around school

4. Safety

5. Pupil support and intervention systems

6. Staff support and development

 

We wanted to share with you some of the feedback in the written report following the reaccreditation visit as it made us all feel very proud of our children and of our school.  

“The children demonstrated excellent behaviour and attitudes. They were confident and mature in their interactions.”

“Routines were clearly well embedded in the life of the school.”

“Parental feedback indicates that all respondents believe that their child makes good progress and is taught well. The feedback from parents referenced behaviour often as a key strength of the school from the parents perspective. All parents agreed that the school makes sure that the children are well behaved and that children feel safe in the school.”

“The children behaved well out of class. They follow routines with little need for direction.”

“Staff roles at lunchtime are clear and there is support for those children who find unstructured time more challenging.   The children behave well in the dining hall.”

“Almost all parents responding to the school survey indicated that their child never reports being bullied in school. There are very few concerns raised around bullying in school.”

“The children's work on the school values supports their development of strong behaviour for learning skills.”

“The new Family Learning Mentor has introduced a new process using circle time in class to develop  family link sessions. Circle time sessions have been modelled to all staff. A clear evaluation process has been undertaken. The children report that they value this time.”

Sport and PE have become a true strength in our school thanks to Miss Kirkham and her talented team.    The sport weeks in the summer term added another opportunity to our sporting calendar and gave children a range of experiences to help them find their sporting talents and I am delighted to share the news that we have, for the fourth year, gained the Sainsbury's School Games GOLD Mark. This award reflects many things to do with our sport provision in school, including:

• The quantity of high-quality PE lessons our children receive each week;
• The amount of children participating in extra-curricular sporting activity each week;
• The support we provide for our talented young sports people and less active children; 
• The number of competitive events we take part in each year.

We are very proud of this award, coming at the end of the year during which we were awarded the Fylde Sports Awards Primary School of the Year.

On Friday 2nd November the presentation ceremony for North West in Bloom was held in Southport. We were delighted with the results. We were one of only five other primary schools chosen to receive a special Environmental Award for our work in the school grounds and our Forest School and best of all we were awarded Outstanding Primary School in the North West for all our work in the school grounds and wildlife area. See Mrs Bowker's Blog for more information. 

On Thursday the 1st of November we attended The Fylde Council

We were assessed by Lancashire County Council Behaviour and were delighted to achieve GOLD in all areas.  An amazing achievement for our team and for our children.
