• Themed Maths Day

  Fri 09 Oct 2020 Mrs Burnham

  Dear Parents/ Carers,

   

  On Friday 23rd October, we are planning to host a themed maths day to enrich our curriculum and promote number facts and times tables with our children.

   

  We hope the children will find this day enjoyable and engaging as an opportunity to explore some fun elements of this vital aspect of our maths teaching in school.

   

  The day will be planned slightly differently for different ages of children:

   

  In EYFS and Y1, the children will be taking part in a 'number day' and should come to school dressed as a number of their choice. They may want to use the popular CBeebies Numberblocks as an inspiration for their outfit. EYFS and Y1 will talk part in fun number activities in their classroom and outdoor environments.

   

  In Y2 and KS2, the day will be planned around the theme of 'Times Tables Rock Stars' to promote the use of the website with these classes. Therefore, we are asking children in these years to come to school dressed as a 'rock star' for the day. We encourage cool outfits and rock star hair styling to be authentic- air guitars are optional!

   

  We are asking for your support in enabling your child to come to school dressed as either a number in EYFS/ Y1 or a rock star in Years 2-6. There are many photos on the internet from other schools who have hosted similar number and times tables days previously, if you are looking for some inspiration for an outfit choice.

   

  Thank you for your support in preparing the children with an outfit for this day, which we hope will be enriching and exciting for all our children.

   

  Yours Sincerely,

  Mrs Burnham

  Maths Leader

• Congratulations letter from the Minister of State for Schools

• Changes to the law relating to holidays in term time

  Wed 24 Jul 2013
  The Department for Education (DfE) has announced important amendments to legislation surrounding holidays in term-time.

   

  From the 1^st September 2013, the change to the law does not give any entitlement to parents to take their child on holiday during term time. Any application for leave must be in exceptional circumstances and the Head teacher must be satisfied that the circumstances warrant the granting of the leave. Parents can be fined by the Local Authority for taking their children on holiday during term time without consent from the school.

   

  As a local Authority, we fully appreciate the financial difficulties some parents may face when booking their holidays or visiting family abroad. However, we are expecting all schools in the borough to introduce firm policies and checks to ensure that there is a reduction in the number of absences during term time.

   

  The LA will be monitoring all school absences during term time and will challenge those schools who do not follow the new legislation.

   

  I would like to take this opportunity on behalf of Trafford Local Authority and your child’s school to thank you for your full support in this matter by not taking your child out of school during term time.

  This new legislation will bring about increased attendance and therefore improved standards in our schools.
