Dear Parents,
Thank you for your interest in our school, a school for which we are very proud. In the
past few years, we have had unprecedented success in all of the objectives set with:
A ContinYou assessment that granted us the Bronze Award and recommended us for the
Gold Award which only few supplementary schools have been granted up to 2013 (currently
in the process of completing the quality framework for the Gold Award, our target is to
achieve this too by the end of the school year 2014).
Record year, once again, on GCE and GCSE in Modern Greek Language results.
This is a different school to the one that existed some years ago. A team of highly trained, competent,
enthusiastic and efficient teachers, as well as well-organised management committee work together,
along with many parents, with the aim to enable children to thrive, to be happy and feel safe in a
welcoming and motivating school environment. We are a school which provides a good opportunity
for all students to achieve their potential in the Greek language, to be part of celebrations relating to
Greek and Cypriot customs and to their Greek-Orthodox origins, to learn dance and to achieve
successfully language acquisition up to GCE A-level in Greek. Our School offers an excellent
opportunity for social networking of children within the Greek community and who come from
various areas in the Midlands. Older students can now also take up the challenge of the ‘Language
Explorer Project’ (from the summer of 2013) to practice the Greek language, to network with Greekspeaking children from different countries and to develop social skills that are essential for life. The
participation to this project, which involves a trip to Cyprus or Greece with other Greek children, will
also enable them to build up their network of friends and to learn a little bit more about the history,
culture and tradition of their native country Cyprus and Greece.
This brochure includes important information with regard to the activities of school for the year 20132013 and we hope you find it helpful.
Yours Sincerely
Dr.Tryfonos Stella

All children must be in their school uniform for the celebrations (see below).
School Uniform Policy
01st September 2013
Dear parents,
Our school uniform plays a valuable role in contributing to the ethos of our school. It is our school
policy that all children wear school uniform when participating in school-organised events outside
normal school hours( for example 28th October 1940 celebration, Christmas, 25th March 1821 e.t.c).
Aims and objectives: Our policy on school uniform is based on the notion that school uniform:
 promotes a sense of pride in the school;
 engenders a sense of community and belonging towards the school;
 is practical and smart;
 identifies the children with the school;
 makes children feel equal to their peers in terms of appearance;
 is regarded as suitable wear for school and good value for money by most parents;
The School uniform is as follows:
 Long sleeved plain school blouse (white), or shirt/ blue tie for all boys
 Grey or black trousers for both boys and girls.
 School badge attached to the shirt/ blouse
 Black shoes for both boys and girls
We would be grateful if this policy is respected and applied by all parents and children.
We now stock some good quality school badges. Parents are required to pay in advance for the school badges
which cost £10 for two. Please contact the school if you would like to order.

Registration Policy for Reception Year studentsNew
Updated Registration Policy 01/11/2011
(in effect from 1st January 2013)
The Greek School of Ayia Triada Birmingham will accept and consider
applications for registration of children to enroll in the ‘Reception Year’,
on condition that by the 1st September (of the year the child will enroll in
the school) the child has reached the age of 4 and 1/2 years old.
Successful School-Parent Partnership
As parents you want your child to be safe, happy and successful. We genuinely believe that with
regular communication we can help you and us to achieve these desirable aims by:
[1] Providing a vibrant twenty first century school
[2] Safety:
a. Bullying of any kind is taken seriously; permanent exclusion is undertaken
b. Misconduct in and out of the classroom is also taken seriously and there is a
behaviour policy in place to address behaviours that would challenge the safety of
pupils or adults.
[3] Setting up a practical and systematic parents-teachers communication system.
Parents and teachers evenings
It is important that parents attend parents’ evenings. It is an opportunity for parents of children to find
out how their child is progressing at school and an ideal time to speak to staff if parents have any
concerns or issues regarding their child.
All parents’ evenings are from 7.30pm - 8.30pm for all branches of Ayia Triada School (ErdingtonMon, Erdington-Wed, Tamworth, Worcester, Stourbridge, Cannock) and from 2:00pm-3:00pm
Erdington-Sat unless otherwise stated (times may change nearer the time). Parents will receive
reminders prior to the date of each parent evening. During the parents evenings is expected that
parents will receive the Progress Reports of their child, and will have a discussion with the teacher of
their child concerning the portfolio of the work that is carried out in class as well as the child’s
attendance.
At the day and time of parents’ evenings:
In order to avoid queuing, the school of Ayia Triada has an appointment system applied at all cases.
For the purposes of this, each teacher has a list of all the parents of the children of his/her class and
Page 6 of 18
Greek School of Ayia Triada Midlands

Tel. 01213274650 Fax.01213274650
website: www.greeksat.org.uk
Erdington, Worcester, Tamworth, Cannock, Stourbridge
allocates time to each parent to meet the teachers. This list is placed at the entrance of the classroom.
Due to this parents should be at school at the time of the parent evening (at 07:30pm, or at 02:00pm if
Saturday School). At the date and time of parents’ evenings parents have the responsibility of their
own children. No child shall be unattended and therefore punctuality is important. Please also note
that the teacher sees both parent and child at the time of the appointment.
Homework
Homework plays a fundamental role in a student’s learning and development at Greek School of Ayia
Triada. It extends and supports the work done in the class but also, importantly, it helps students to
learn to work independently and to organise their own time. All pupils attending Greek School of
Ayia Triada have a structured and systematic homework plan across the year. This always involves,
reading, spelling, studying of the new vocabulary and it does not exceed the 20 minutes of study. We
therefore encourage parents, even if the child misses a lesson, to regularly check the homework of
their child. Even in the case of absence parents are advised to contact the teacher of the class to be
updated. Greek lessons are usually 3 hours a week and therefore we believe that homework is another
opportunity for children to practice language in a place other than school. For students taking GCSE
and GCE the homework tasks are slightly different. An essay task is added to homework.
Reading Books and Textbooks
All textbooks are provided free of charge at the Greek School of Ayia Triada, however if a child looses or
damages his/her book, they are charged £10 per each second new copy. Activity books are always kept at school
whilst reading books are always taken home.
Code of Conduct
At Greek School of Ayia Triada, our aim is for all students to aim for excellence and work to the best
of their ability. In order for this to occur, we have a clear set of expectations for classroom behaviour.
We expect students to:
Be on time and be prepare to work
Put up their hand if they wish to
Follow instructions and be safe
contribute
Not disturb other
If having been reminded of the rules, students choose not to comply with these rules, and then they
will be held accountable of their actions. This might mean removal from the class, referral to the
headteacher or letter will be sent at home requesting their suspension from the school for some time
(depending on the seriousness of action). Parents will be informed in all cases.
We also aim for our school to be safe and happy environment for everyone. To this end, while moving
around the school, we expect students to:
Behave Safely and Responsibly
Be Civilised, Friendly and show Respect to all adults (teachers, parents, other school staff)
Help us care for the environment
Further details of this code are given by the teachers or displayed in printed form in the classrooms.
Serious or persistent misbehaviour will result in further actions taken by the school.

Religious Education
The religious education is statutory and non-denominational in character. All students must, by law,
study RE throughout their school career. In their English schools students have the opportunity to
learn a little bit of most of the known faiths and religions and they are encouraged to appreciate and
respect diversity. Likewise, in our school, the pupils have the opportunity to expand their knowledge
about the Greek Orthodox religion. That is to learn about the major saints, celebrations and events of
Christianity (Christmas, Easter, Evangelismos, name-days, the church as a spiritual place: meaning of
icons and objects) Having said this, as Greek-Cypriot Language School which operates under the
umbrella of the Cypriot Ministry of Education and Culture, EFEPE and the Cyprus Educational
Mission in the UK, we ensure that our students receive RE Education and they learn about the Greek
Orthodox religion, customs, tradition following an agreed MOEC syllabus and following guidelines
of the UK Department of Education. For further queries concerning RE education in our school please
do not hesitate to contact the teacher of your child or headteacher directly. Additionally to learning
activities, the first Saturday of each month children visit, with their teachers, the St. Loucas and Holy
Trinity Church (if there is a service at the time.
Charging for School Activities
The Greek School of Ayia Triada wishes to provide for all students the best possible educational opportunities available
within the funds allocated by the education authority. Despite of this, however, our school runs mostly with limited funds
available due to the nature of the education provided and the fact that the school operates as a supplementary school. The
past couple of years the school has experienced unprecedented termination of financial support received for the running
expenses from the local councils due to the general financial crisis. The main financial support is now the one granted by the
Cypriot Ministry of Education and Culture (in the form of teachers’ payment, stationery and book supply) the tuition fees we
receive from the parents every year and fund raising activities organized by management committee.
It is recognized, however, that educationally valuable activities have been, and will continue to be, dependent on financial
contributions in whole or in part from the parents. Without that financial support, the school will find it quite impossible to
maintain the quality and breadth of the educational programme provided for students. The concern of our school is to keep
financial contributions to a reasonable minimum and to ensure as far as possible that all students are able to participate
irrespective of their circumstances.
The law, concerning the mainstream education recognizes that charges may be made to parents in certain defined
circumstances-provided that each school has identified the activities for which charges will be made and has explained the
basis on which charges may be reduced or waived for certain students. The same applies to our school.
Having said this, parents will be charged for activities taking place outside school time, day visits, including all allowable
cost (child’s travel and subsistence costs, entrance fees to museums castles, theatres etc, insurance costs for the duration of
the trip. Charges may be waived or reduced for children whose parents contacted the school and applied for this due to
personal circumstances.

Behaviour Strategy—Pupil Information.
Mission Statement
“It is the right of every pupil in our school to learn in a safe and comfortable
environment. It is the responsibility of every pupil to contribute to our
community in a positive manner by following the golden rules.”
Bring pen, pencil.
Do as teacher asks first time without question.
No put downs.
Pupils who follow these rules and provide a positive example to our
community will be rewarded for their good behaviour.
Rewards include praise logs, praise postcards and our Greek School of Ayia
Triada Certificate which can be awarded at bronze, silver, gold or platinum
levels.
Whilst the majority of pupils behave well, those pupils who break our school
rules will be subject to consequences. This is because poor behaviour spoils
the learning and life chances of everyone.
If you misbehave, a meeting will take place with the teacher to resolve any
differences you may have. This may be accompanied by a sanction such as a
detention as a consequence for your poor behaviour.
You may be kept for ten minutes at the end of a day without prior warning to
your parent. For very serious incidences(such as violent or abusive
behaviour) the Management committee will be notified which will decide
whether or not further measures need to be taken.
All misbehaviour is accompanied by a conduct log which is recorded on
official letter and will be sent to your parents. Depending on the seriousness
of the incident, parents might be call to visit the school for a meeting with the
headteacher and the management committee.
Your teacher will monitor your conduct log records and your parents will be
told if you have been given five or more conduct logs within half a term or if
there is a serious incident that warrants parental support and intervention.
Also the teacher may also monitor your behaviour using a Progress Diary
Report system. This is designed to show teachers and parents that you
recognise the need to respond to sanctions and improve your behaviour. Your
parent will be asked to review and sign the report each lesson. A reward will
be given to pupils who are successful following a period on report.

Dear parents,
Αγαπητοί γονείς,
We would like to inform you from the 14/01/2013 we have
published our own Greek School of Ayia Triada facebook page.
This page holds important information about the school, updates
on events and information which students and parents (of children
who attend our school) will find important. We think that through
this page the school information will be more accessible to people
who are Facebook users and who probably find this way of
communication more handy than flyers, emails, letters, text
messages and website updates. This is not to say that these are
less important. On the contrary, our objective is to manage
communication as successfully as possible with a wider audience.
On this page we will include the following:
Θα θέλαμε να σας πληροφορήσουμε ότι από τις 14/01/2013 το
σχολείο μας θα διαθέτει την δική του σελίδα στο Facebook κάτω την
ονομασία Greek School of Ayia Triada. Στη σελίδα αυτή θα
περιλαμβάνονται σημαντικές πληροφορίες για το σχολείο,
ενημέρωση για διάφορες εκδηλώσεις του σχολείου καθώς επίσης και
πληροφορίες που ενδιαφέρουν παιδιά και γονείς. Πιστεύουμε ότι με
τη σελίδα αυτή πληροφορίες που αφορούν στο σχολείο μας θα είναι
προσβάσιμες στο ευρύτερο κοινό και σε άτομα που είναι χρήστες του
Facebook και που πιθανόν βρίσκουν τον τρόπο επικοινωνίας αυτό πιο
εύχρηστο από τα γράμματα, ή τα μυνήματα, ή τα emails και την

Το τελευταίο ημίωρο είναι πάντοτε αφιερωμενο στην διδασκαλία κοινωνικών θεμάτων.
Μεσα στα πλαίσια αυτού, τα παιδιά διδάσκονται χορό και επίκαιρα θέματα τα οποία
εμπίπτουν στην διδακτέα ύλη που καθορίζεται από το αναλυτικό πρόγραμμα για την
παροικιακή εκπαίδευση. Για παράδειγμα τα παιδιά διδάσκονται θέματα μέσα από την
ιστόρία, παράδοση, ελληνικό πολιτισμό και ελληνορθόδοξη θρησκευτική πίστη.
Το σχολείο μας λειτουργεί επίσης με τρία τμήματα ενηλίκων στο παράρτημα του Tamworth
και στο Erdington (Τετάρτη). Τα τμήματα αυτά λειτουργούν με διαφορετικό πρόγραμμα και
δίνεται έμφαση στην διδασκαλία της ελληνικής ως δεύτερης γλώσσας.
Το περιεχόμενο και οι στόχοι του κάθε μαθήματος, τόσο στα μαθήματα ενηλίκων όσο και στα
μαθήματα από 4-16 ετών, αποφασίζονται από τον εκπαιδευτικό της τάξης και σχετιζονται
άμεσα με το αναλυτικό πρόγραμμα, το επίπεδο, τις δυνατότητες και τις ανάγκες των
μαθητών της τάξης.

 The last part of the lesson (30 minutes) is devoted to learning about the Greek
culture, history, Greek orthodox faith. As part of this, children learn traditional
dance and are taught about history and culture .
 Two adult classes are created this year in Erdington and in Tamworth. The classes
operate on a different curriculum than the one applied for children of ages 5-16.
The focus of these classes are on teaching and learning Greek as a modern foreign
language.
