Dear parents and carers, What a difference some sunshine makes! There is been a real buzz of activity around school. The children work extremely hard and we are most impressed with their enthusiasm for learning. This week we have had senior leaders from within our cluster supporting us complete our self-review. It was fantastic to see that they too recognised how fabulous our children are, as well as the school’s strengths. Some of the highlights include:  Excellent relationships between adults and children  Children make good progress from their starting points  Attainment outcomes are above national averages in all key areas  An engaging and challenging curriculum  Strong team work from all staff  High ambition  Excellent behaviours for learning  Strong and positive pupil voice The list could go on! I would like to thank all the staff for their commitment, hard work and genuine concern for the welfare of all our pupils. I would also like to praise our children for the very positive way in which they conduct themselves. They are a real credit to you as parents. Regards Mrs Sharon Edwards
