THIS WEEK'S NEWS
STAFF WELLBEING AND WORKLOAD QUESTIONNAIRE Please spend 10 minutes and complete the questionnaire found here: https://forms.gle/ZHCvzwViEA5qUg8g7. It will give us an insight into staff thoughts and feelings around wellbeing and workload within the school. We appreciate that there's never a good time to ask, with the current climate, but please be honest and let us know your views. If required, we'll let you know of any outcomes following an analysis of the results.
PUPIL PROGRESS MEETINGS These have been arranged for next week and are now on the calendar along with who is due to cover. Please have work prepared for those covering, where required. Teachers need to have completed three separate PPM sheets for reading, writing and maths. The discussions taking place will include who focus pupils should be for this term and what interventions will be in place. If you come to the meeting with MK and GW with any ideas, it will speed up the meeting.
ASSESSMENTS Please can GW have your assessments - the actual papers so that intervention can be planned. Thank you.
THE WRITE STUFF Please put your questions up in the staffroom (no matter how big or small), then we can look into answering them in our English meeting.
RISK ASSESSMENT Please only use the staff toilet allocated to you as per the risk assessment. Other toilets are not to be used. Also, please always wear a visor indoors when around other children who are not from your bubble. Thank you!
YEAR 5/6 BREAK Is now at 10.55am-11.10am
READING COMP AND WISHLIST Please hand it back to GW this week.
MOBILE PHONE USE Please be careful about using your mobile phone while the children are nearby. It's difficult at this time because breaks are being taken in other areas around the school and not just the staffroom, so please be mindful.
WEEKLY PHONICS MEET UP We will try and do our first meet up on Friday at 2.30. If you teach phonics then please attend the ICT suite. Please could Mrs Gully, Mrs Naughton and Miss Dippnall read to Year R,1,2 a lovely story whilst wearing a visor. See GW if you have any questions.
THOUGHT OF THE WEEK If you ever get cold, just stand in the corner of a room for a while. They're normally around 90 degrees.
