Please can we ask that all parents and carers check their school meals account on ParentPay.  We have numerous families in arrears and need these to be cleared as soon as possible.

The school office may contact you to discuss arrears if they persist.  If you require support please discuss this with us so we are aware of your circumstances and can make a plan together.

If you believe you may be entitled to Free School Meals please do read the criteria and make an application here: https://www.telford.gov.uk/info/20028/school_meals/9/free_school_meals

Thank you for your support.

🏃 Is your child between 4 – 14?  Why not sign them up to join the junior park run in Telford Town Park? It’s great for being more active outdoors.

The weekly 2k runs will be taking place on Sunday mornings at 9am. The first one starting on 14 January 2024.

It will be great fun and a chance for them to make new friends.

To take part your child will need to be registered on the Park Run website. This needs to be done before you attend (you only need to do this once), register for free now and for more info >>>  https://www.parkrun.org.uk/telford-juniors/

NOTE: A few people have asked why the report refers to reinspection by 2025: this is a reference to a SIAMS Inspection (Statutory Inspection of Anglican and Methodist Schools) which is a Section 48 inspection we now anticipate within the next 12 months.

Our next OFSTED inspection is anticipated in 4+ years time unless anything should change in the meantime.

OFSTED Letter from Headteacher

Please can we ask parents/carers to support school staff to ensure that children are dismissed safely at the end of the day.  Classes will be lined up and teachers will dismiss children in turn one:one to ensure they oversee how they are leaving site.

Please be prepared and understanding that you may have to wait a moment in order for this to happen safely.

We thank you for your support.
