Dear Parents/Carers,
The start of the new term has been great. The children have settled back into the term very well and our
Trust have been in to monitor Learning & Teaching. Mr Richards was pleased with how focussed the children
were on their learning.
If you have any issues or feel that you would like to speak to a member of the academy staff please feel free
to do so.
Whilst trying to solve any queries, we recommend that you speak to your child’s class teacher and year leader
first. If this does not resolve your query Mrs Dunkley (Vice Principal) or Mr Ingham (Acting Assistant Principal)
would be your next point of contact.
Whilst I am not on the playground every morning, I am still available to speak to if you wish. Appointments to
see me can be made through the academy office.
