We are a 'Rights Respecting' Silver School
We have been awarded our Rights Respecting Silver Award. This award, granted by Unicef UK to schools, shows that we have made good progress towards embedding children’s rights in the school’s policy, practice and ethos, as outlined in the RRSA Strands and Outcomes.
Rights Respecting Assemblies
We regularly deliver assemblies which help us all to learn about the rights of the child.
Some of our recent assemblies have been -
- Universal Children's Day (November 2021)
- Our visit to the Houses of Parliament (September 2019)
- World Refugee Day (June 2022)
- World Health Day (May 2022)
The Houses of Parliament
Our year six Learning Ambassadors visited the Houses of Parliament, in London, as part of their Pupil Parliament work. They shared what they had found out during an assembly.

Family Workshops
We also help with the delivery of family workshops at school.
During the Spelling Workshop, we showed families how to complete a variety of activities to help children with the learning of their spellings.
During the Maths Workshop, we demonstrated how to play a variety of maths games to help with the learning of the multiplication tables.
