'The curriculum is broad. Pupils enjoy learning and make strong progress. '

'The rise in standards, together with pupils’ positive attitudes to learning, ensures

that pupils are prepared well for secondary school. '

'Pupils have very positive attitudes to school. They take great pride in themselves

and their school.'

Ofsted (2018) said:

'Pupils feel safe and are taught how to keep themselves safe.'

'Pupils’ behaviour is outstanding'

'Staff know pupils as individuals and work closely with families to

organise relevant individual support, when needed.'

Ethos and Values

We are a UNICEF 'rights respecting school'.

• Article 29 of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child states:

'Your education should help you use and develop

your talents and abilities. It should also help you

learn to live peacefully, protect the environment

and respect other people.'

Special Educational Needs

“All teachers are teachers of students with ‘Special Educational Needs’. It is the class teacher’s responsibility to plan and deliver lessons that

include and are accessible to all students.”

If your child has special educational needs, any additional information will havebeen transferred over from their infant school and their new class teacher &LSA will be made aware. It is then the class teacher & LSA’s responsibility toadapt lessons to suit their needs.

Mrs Lisa King, the school’s SENDco, completes regular checks on childrenwith special educational needs and tracks their progress carefully. Anyadditional interventions will be put in place when and where necessary.

If you have any concerns about your child’s SEN, please do not hesitate to make an appointment with Mrs King via the school office.

The School DayThe doors open at 8:30am and registration is at 8.45am.

We have Guided Reading, English and Maths every morning.

We have one break in the morning and then lunch at 12pm.

The afternoons are when children learn the foundation subjects, including: PE, RE, PSHE, Geography, History, Art, Science, IT and Design Technology.

School finishes at 3.15pm. At the end of the school day, Year 3

children will leave through their classroom’s designated door. (Elm by main entrance & Oak on the field next to the PE container)

Please wait outside this door to pick up your child when the gate

has been opened.

Year 3

Oak Class Elm Class

Year 3 classrooms will be found on the first floor above

year 4 and the library.

Each half term, there will be a different topic that most of

the work is based around.

Year 3’s first topic will be based around ‘Asia’.

Your stunning start will be ’A taste of Asia’ workshops:

learning and painting Japanese numbers, making origami,

practicing Tai-Chi and food tasting.

Break Times

Children are encouraged to bring in a healthy snack

to eat at mid morning.

Lunches

Children can either bring in their own packed lunch or have a school dinner for £2.50.

There is a meat option, a vegetarian option and there can be a third option e.g. jacket potato.

Online Payments

Frogmore Junior School is pleased to offer an online payments facility via www.scopay.com. Parents can pay for school dinners,

trips, residentials, swimming and music lessons via our secure system. Both credit and debit cards are accepted. There is no

additional charge for using this service.

Going for Gold!

GOLD!When children work hard, make good choices, do their best or help

others they can move up the ‘Going for Gold’ chart. When they get

to Gold they will get a certificate from Miss Richardson and it will

be shared in Celebration Assembly.

However, a verbal reminder will be given if a wrong choice is made.

Yellow: If a child makes another wrong choice their name will be

moved to a warning.

Amber: If they continue to make wrong choices, they will be moved

to Amber, where they may have to miss some of their break time or

be moved to another class to reflect on the choices they have made.

Red: This is for more serious behaviour that is not appropriate. This

can be hurting another child on purpose or using inappropriate words.

A child can also go onto red if they continue making the wrong

choice. Behaviour will be formally recorded. Miss Richardson and

parents will be informed.
