Dear Parents/Carers
Parents/Carers
We have had an eventful week with the KS2 children working hard at SATS, dancing and tennis
festivals, and of course, the OFSTED Inspection. We should hopefully know the outcome of this
inspection in a couple of weeks when it is finalised and will advise you of this outcome in due course. I
would like to personally thank all the staff, governors and volunteers (there are so many of you to name
individually but you know who you are!) who have worked even harder this week in supporting the school
and the children. Your support, commitment and generosity with your time is, as always, valued and very
much appreciated.
Sarah Nisbett - Headteacher
