13. Overview of a Typical Week

14. Curriculum
PPA: This is a morning of lessons consisting of P.E (taught by a qualified coach)., music and Spanish (qualified Spanish teacher). These lessons last an hour. In the meantime the class teacher and teacher assistants are planning and preparing for the next week ahead. Discussion of the year group.
Music: Miss Phillips teaches music across the school as part of the PPA system. She also runs music clubs, such as choir. Should you be interested in you child having peripatetic instrumental lessons, please see the office who will contact Miss Phillips.
Years 2 & 6 make clear to parents that the SATs test format and marking and reporting has completely changed (e.g. year 2 children will sit a grammar test!) – more detail to follow.

17. Target Cards
Please insert a new slide with the inside of your year group’s target card for writing (found in SF/Others/Deputy and assistant heads/curriculum and assessment/target cards/writing). Pick up salient targets of note for the year group. Talk about how the TC will be used to set targets and shared at PE. They will have a copy and it will be available on the class blog. Any help at home towards the targets would be great!

26. Progress and Assessment
Formal feedback three times a year via parents/carers’ evenings and end of year reports
New curriculum does not have ‘old’ levels (2a/4b etc.)
Attainment will be reported against age related expectations (‘below’, ‘at’, ‘above’)
Include new assessment info e.g. ‘below’ ‘at’ and ‘above’, parents evenings, reports. IEP process – parents in in first few weeks to meet with teacher to set targets.

27. Class Blogs www.hayesparkblogs.net
Please get the school blog site up prior to the start of the meeting so that you can show ‘live’ content as you talk through this section. Please emphasise to parents that we have received and listened to their feedback on knowing what the children are learning etc. and that this is their first port of call in terms of class communication. Show them how to get to the site (and draw their attention to the flyer about the blog site and twitter that they have been given as part of the meeting). The blog will have two main uses for them: 1) it will contain information about the curriculum and notices relevant to the class etc (communication tab), as well as specific subject information and user guides (this is a big part of the sip – teachers/students creating user guides to exemplify methods/explain homework etc.) It would be AMAZING if prior to the parent meeting you could have one on there – maybe ‘what the addition method looks like in your year group’ for e.g. Although the new class blogs will all look pretty much the same at the moment, they will grow over the year. Feel free to share the school journey page or the sports page as examples. 2) The blog is for the children. There may be tasks set or questions posed by teachers, but any of the children can write about something they are interested in – it may be the topic they are studying. This is their opportunity to write to a wider audience. They may have a question that could be answered by someone on the other side of the world (we will be liking with a global audience!). It is safe – no writing is authorised to be seen publically unless the teacher has viewed it first. The children all have a log in (this will be in their planner books). Please encourage your child to go to the ‘reading blog’ and post a book review to help other children make choices (as well as practise their writing skills!).

29. Safeguarding
Hayes Park School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of all children and expects its staff and volunteers to share in this commitment. We have a school Child Protection Policy and procedures in place to support this. Parents and carers are welcome to read this policy on request or via the policy section of our school website. Sometimes we may need to share information and work in partnership with other agencies when there are concerns regarding a child’s welfare. We will ensure that wherever possible our concerns are discussed with a child’s parents or carers unless we believe this may compromise a child’s safety or welfare.
Our designated Child Protection Staff are:
 Janna Murphy, Assistant Head
Rachel Bates, Assistant Head
Penny Woodman, Deputy Head teacher
Sarah Blakey, EYFS Co-coordinator
If you have any concerns regarding a child’s welfare please report this in confidence to a member of the Child Protection Team as soon as possible.
