Spring Term 1 Week 1
A word from Mr Broom
After the craziness of the final week of term, our staff and children took a well-earned rest over the Christmas break, and it's been great to see everyone back to it this week, refreshed and ready to go.
Hopefully by next week, I'm hoping to have received the draft of our Ofsted report and shortly thereafter, be able to share it with you.
Finally, thank you for your understanding with our closure on Monday. I can't believe that many rural schools remained closed for some days. Let's hope the weather improves for next week.
Have a super weekend everyone.
Safeguarding Newsletter
With this in mind, It was brought to our attention that a member of the public and York press happened to write about our school but using information from Dojo. Can I please remind you that Dojo is for parents/family of our school only and the information is not to be shared.
