Governors’ Fund classroom iPad appeal

Technology in schools has become a staple used in everyday teaching and learning activities.  It is important that children develop their technological literacy and become comfortable using a variety of instructional materials, tools and programs for their own learning that will help prepare them for secondary school and life beyond.

We are blessed to have a dedicated ICT suite of desktop computers for the teaching of ICT as a curriculum subject but the school would benefit greatly from the opportunity to enhance its technology provision in classrooms to help develop the children’s skills in cross-curricular situations through other subjects. 

Our next focus is to support the school in purchasing 30 new 10^th generation iPads (together with anti-shock cases for protection).  This will enable a whole class to work, communicate and collaborate through digital means on a 1:1 basis and will be something available for all year groups to use.

As you will appreciate, keeping up with the latest technology is a costly process and is not something that schools are able to do easily in the current climate of funding squeezes and significant cost pressures.  We would be extremely grateful for any donations you feel able to give towards this worthwhile project, which you can make easily online here.  Thank you for your support.

Pick-up notes 

Please note that if someone other than a parent/carer is picking your child up, you need to let the teacher or the office know. Please put pick-up notes in your child's reading/ homework diary or bookbag. 

For KS2 children, please remind your child to tell the teacher that the message is in there.

Children will not be released with someone else unless we have been notified of it. 

If you do need to let the office know about a last minute pick-up change,  please do so before 2 pm if possible.

Thank you for your co-operation.
