A huge congratulations to all of our Year Six for finishing their SAT tests. They tackled them with maturity, determination and perseverance and are an absolute credit to their parents and carers and to us as a school.
As a treat an ice cream came from Vision education on the afternoon of Friday 12th of May and they all enjoyed a well deserved treat.
Dear Parents/Carers of Year 6 Pupils 7 October 2016
Secondary School in September 2016
May I remind you that the closing date for returning your application form for your child to transfer into Secondary School next year is Monday 31 October at 4.30pm.
The easiest way to apply for your preferred school(s) is online by logging onto the Council web site at www.southtyneside.gov.uk/schooladmissions. If you apply online, you will be notified on Wednesday 1 March 2017 our ‘offer day’ via your e-mail account.
Please be reminded that you must make a note of the email address that you use when applying as this will be the email address that will be used to send notification of your school offer.
Parents are also reminded that if they change address following the submission of an application form that they must notify us of this change in writing either by email to [email protected] or by post to the School Admissions Team, Town Hall and Civic Offices, South Shields, NE33 2RL. Change of addresses must reach us by Friday 6 January 2017. If you do not provide us with a change of address by this date, your new address will not be taken into account when allocating places.
If you have not applied online, you will receive a letter which is sent in the second class post on offer day.
If you do not have access to a computer you can obtain a hard copy of the application form by contacting the School Admissions Team on telephone numbers 0191 424 7767 or 0191 424 7706.
Failure to return or returning your application form late will reduce the chance of your child gaining a place at your preferred school.
Please be reminded, it is your responsibility to ensure your application form is completed and received by the deadline date of Monday 31 October at 4.30pm.
This is a generic message to all parents so if you have already applied for your child’s school place please ignore this letter.
Yours sincerely
Christine Henderson
