• Parent Welcome Meetings!

  Fri 22 Sep 2023

   

  Welcome meetings! Last year we ran welcome meetings for each year group so that all parents had the opportunity to meet their child’s new class teachers. We will be holding the meetings again this year. It is a chance for parents to find out about the learning in the year group and some very important points in the year, for example deadlines for secondary applications or SATs dates. It was wonderful to see so many parents last year and we would love to see you all again. Mrs Roberts will also be available at the meeting to talk about any issues we may be able to offer help with. Light refreshments will also be available.

• Attendance

  Wed 20 Sep 2023

  Attendance, attendance, attendance! I cannot stress enough how important your child’s attendance in school is. We need to start this year ensuring that our children are in school every day. The Government have a clear plan to improve attendance and parents will know from our recent OFSTED report that we must improve attendance here at Cape. When your child is late or when they get taken out of school for an appointment, or the miss a day, they are missing out on valuable learning time. This could result in them falling behind and not achieving their full potential. Myself and my governors expect children to come to school every day. You will notice that if attendance or punctuality starts to slip then Mrs Saghir will be making an appointment with you to identify the reasons why. If you, yourself, has an appointment then you should make arrangements for your child to be collected at the end of the school day, not taking them out of school during the day or early. You must also inform school of the name of the person collecting your child so not to cause embarrassment to the person collecting. Last year we had some children that had fantastic attendance and made great progress, let’s aim for every child to be in that category this year.

• OFSTED!

  Wed 06 Sep 2023

  Parents may remember that we had a visit from OFSTED at the end of June. The outcomes of that inspection had to remain confidential until the report was finalised. We are absolutely delighted to have received the final report in school today which confirms that we are a GOOD school! Well done to all of the staff and children for their continued hard work and commitment that has secured the judgement we deserve. Parents can find a full copy of the report by clicking here.
