Reminder – Health Strategy Survey

Dear Parents/Carers,

The Telford Health Improvement team and I would be really grateful to parents if they could spend just a few minutes filling in the attached survey.

As an incentive, we are offering a £25 Love2Shop voucher to one lucky person who does!

All you have to do is fill in the survey, then let the office staff know you have. They will collect names and then one lucky person will be pulled out of a hat!

It is really important that we gather community thoughts on health matters in our borough, as your opinions really do drive change and the offer we have across Telford.

The survey is live until 2nd October.  Link to survey attached below.

Many thanks

Curriculum Governors Committee Update

The Curriculum Governors met yesterday and were super impressed with the amount of work carried out by staff and pupils in such a short space of time since the start of the term.

A selection of KS 2 SEND mathematicians came to share their books and views on how they have started the year. They all love maths and their books looked amazing!

Governors were very impressed with the amount of work completed by the new music lead since she took up this role in September. They were excited to see the impact on the children’s enjoyment linked to music.

Governors approved the equality targets for 2023-2024 and encourage parents/carers to look at this on the website.

Governors had a detailed update from the SENDco and were impressed with the action plan and future plans around parental communication linked to SEND.

School site parking

Dear Parents/Carers,

 Similarly, to most other schools, we have parking issues at the beginning and end of each day. Many schools do not even allow access to Blue Badge holders at any point during the day.

We want to be able to continue offering Blue Badge holders access, but do ask that you do not move your vehicles whilst we are at our busiest time with very many young children and pushchairs moving around the site. Please wait until it has quietened down before moving.

Please note that disabled parking spaces on school site, are for blue badge holders only.

Recently it has been noted that some parents without a disabled badge are parking in the disabled bays, even though there are normal spaces available. 

Please can we stress how important it is to leave these spaces clear, even if you think it is only for a few minutes.

We continually monitor our school site and of course safety is of paramount importance. If we believe our site is becoming in anyway dangerous, we would have to reconsider all access arrangements moving forward.

Thank you for your ongoing support.
