• Very successful Y1 maths workshop

  Fri 30 Jan 2015

  Year 1 maths games workshop

   

  This week parents from year 1 were invited to attend a maths games workshop, aimed at helping children become fluent in basic number work. A record number of parents attended and were all given a games pack containing the resources and ideas for a variety of games which would enable the children to practise their number skills. After playing some games with other parents in the hall, the children came to play too. We all had a great time and enjoyed doing our number work. Thank you to all the parents who attended and to Lucie our Parent Support Advisor who translated for families who do not have English as their home language.

  We were thrilled to learn that our school has been invited to attend the 'We Day' at Wembley Arena in March.  This is due to our school's commitment, led by the School Council, to undertake both global and local projects to make a change to people's lives.  Our invite recognises the positive impact of all the amazing work of the School Council including leading Operation Christmas Child, our Green Travel Project and charity fundraising.  This is a remarkable achievement for primary aged children which reflects Cliftonville School's vision to build a generation of active citizens who recognise their rights and responsibilities in their local and wider communities.

   

  Congratulations to every member of the school community - this is an award for you all!

   

   

   

  

• School Awarded Quality Mark

  Mon 12 Jan 2015

  National Quality Mark award for Continuous Professional Learning and Development (CPLD)

   

  We were very pleased to have been awarded a National Quality Mark for our commitment to staff professional learning and development.  Last week, we had a very robust external assessment of our work to improve outcomes for children through developing every member of the staff. 

   

  Our CPLD has enabled us to further improve the quality of teaching and learning and demonstrates our core purpose as a learning organisation....for both children and staff!

   

  We are extremely proud of this accreditation.
