Mrs Spencer
Unfortunately Mrs Spencer, one of our KS1 TAs, has recently had a cancer diagnosis. Mrs Spencer will be away from school over the next few weeks whilst she undergoes treatment and I am sure you will join us in sending her our best wishes.

Family and Community Learning
Family and Community Learning have their new 2022/23 prospectus available. You can find a copy on the Parent Support Advisor page of our website.
Courses are funded by the Education and Skills Funding Agency. Courses are no cost to you if you:
• are 19+ and have been a resident in UK/EU for 3+years (refugees* / asylum seekers / have right to remain status are exempt from the 3-year residency requirement)
• And you either have less than 5 GCSEs grades A-C, are in receipt of benefits, a military family or you may have other issues that joining a course could help you with. You might be stuck in a rut or going through a difficult time? We want to hear from people who are unsure about if they can join, and we are always happy to talk things through.
