We have started the term on a new page so to speak. We have to thank Robert and Tina for their splendid efforts as Chair and Vice Chair. I hope you will agree they have been of great benefit to the school. Louise Oram has been voted in as Chair and Robert as Vice Chair. Tina remains on the Governors which is great.
We started the year as we mean to go on. Specifically we are reviewing strategies and potential options for improving the road safety of the children and indeed yourselves along Newbridge Road. The Children have been surveying the traffic with the police for us and we hope that the police will continue to support this activity throughout the year. Please can you make every effort to park your car with the safety of others foremost in mind. It is beneficial if people arrive, collect and leave with a minimal stay. The Governors will be talking to those considered to be parked inappropriately.
This month we are pleased to report that the new class one shelter is complete and we will post a photograph shortly for those of you who don’t get the opportunity to visit the rear of the school very often. This is a fantastic new resource for the early years children.
Being the new year we have reminded ourselves of the role and responsibility of a governor and in particular we have paid attention to the schools safeguarding policy. This is available on the schools policy page.
We received the school improvement plan which is quite substantial and will be reviewed in stages throughout the year in the various committees we attend.
As always I am interested to hear from you.
Regards
Paul Cotton
