‘Even better if it has trips.'
|
We were unable to organise Educational Visits during the pandemic. Prior to this classes went on regular visits to museums, galleries and other places of interest. Y6 & Y5 also went on school journeys. Every class has booked a visit of some kind for this term. School Journeys for Y5 & Y6 are planned for Spring and Summer 2022. We strongly believe that learning beyond the classroom enriches and enhances our curriculum and are 100% commited to providing a range of educational visits. |
‘Longer lunchtimes - eating, not just playing.’ |
All classes have one hour for lunch. Children spend 30 minutes in the playground and have a lunch sitting of 30 minutes. |
'More efficient communication.' |
We are constantly developing and adding to our means of communication, to try and reach as many parents as possible; which is why we welcome the feedback provided by this survey. Current means of communication include: fortnightly newsletters, tweets, emails, texts and the class pages & parent sections on the school website. In response to feedback we now have an Instagram account https://www.instagram.com/stannsschn15 We were pleased to be able to reintroduce face to face consultation meetings this term - which have taken place earlier this academic year (4 weeks from the children returning). Next term parents will receive a written overview of their child's progress and attainment, with a follow up phone or TEAMs consultation meeting. Teachers are always available to speak to parents, either briefly at the beginning or end of the day or - with prior agreement - for a longer face to face or telephone meeting. As always we encourage parents to speak to their child's class teacher if they have any concerns; or the Head of School if this does not resolve the matter. |
