Snow ****UPDATE 11th December 20.30pm****

As you will already be aware, snow is falling and this means that the roads and pathways are, and will be, dangerous. Weather forecasts are changing hourly with some saying more snow is due overnight. 

 

Freezing temperatures are of a greater concern. We will try our utmost to ensure the site is safe and we will make a decision in the morning as to whether the school will have to close.


A text will be sent out and a message will be put on the school blog.

Pupil Admissions Consultation- Draft Policy

Click Here  

On 1st January 2023, the four schools of The Galaxy Trust and five schools of The Pathway Academy Trust are due to merge to form a new Trust "The Golden Thread Alliance" (Company Number 10250958).

We have therefore been reviewing all of our Admissions Policies to ensure a consistent and equitable approach in relation to pupil admissions to all schools in The Golden Thread Alliance. We are therefore going out to formal public consultation on our proposed Admissions Policy for pupils entering our schools in the 2024-2025 academic year. See attached link for further information.

The Pearson National Teaching Awards


The Pearson National Teaching Awards are the ‘Oscars’ of the teaching profession!

First established in 1998, the awards are an annual celebration of excellence in education, recognising the amazing work of teachers across the UK.

We offer 15 awards categories covering the primary, secondary and FE sectors, open to schools and colleges in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.

The Awards are an opportunity for your whole school community to celebrate the work of your teaching colleagues, they’re a real opportunity to let your teaching staff shine.


The ‘Unsung Hero’ Award aims to recognise the everyday heroes working in early years settings, schools and colleges, giving them the thanks they deserve, whether it’s a stand-out teacher, friendly caretaker, playground helper or brilliant office receptionist!

It is the only award open to nominations from parents/carers and pupils so do spread the word amongst your school community and encourage them to make their nomination via the form below.  You can also choose to send your nominee a personal thank you message and card via the Thank a Teacher campaign. We’ll follow up with your school to invite your senior leadership team to progress the nomination into a fully-fledged Pearson National Teaching Awards entry and who knows, we could be surprising you live on The One Show!

Year 5 at Shorne Country Park

Year 5 had a wonderful time at Shorne Country Park yesterday and today. Spirits remained high despite the weather yesterday. We learnt how different features of the landscape are represented on an Ordnance Survey map and how to use a compass. After getting our bearings, we set off to find specific waypoints hidden around the woods and record the letters marked on them. After lunch, we went Geocaching using a more high tech handheld GPS device to track down each location.
