We have a culture of high expectations in all aspects of school life, and it is these expectations that help all in our school community reach higher, every day. At the heart of our school are our children. We have the same high expectations of each of them as they learn and grow with us.
We expect: We hope our children and parents never feel that our school is failing to deliver on these high expectations. We fully understand that issues can arise where it can be unclear why a particular course of action has been taken. Should that ever happen then our teaching team will always be available to listen and to help find a resolution.
My door is always open too, and I am committed to ensuring that any issues are resolved as swiftly as possible to get us back to meeting the high expectation you have of our school.
The future of John Wycliffe Primary School is very bright indeed and I am delighted to be playing a part in that alongside the children, staff, governors and parents that make up our vibrant school community.
