SCHOOL ETHOS

St Peter’s School recognises that Gospel values and the teachings of Christ are central to the life of the school.

Teachers, parents and Governors share a common purpose in the task of educating all our children, developing within them understanding, justice, tolerance and sensitivity to the needs of others, thus enabling them to take their role as contributing members of society.

Each child is entitled to be given the opportunity to develop his / her talents to the full.

The whole school community will fully support the spiritual, intellectual, physical, social, cultural, emotional and moral development of all its pupils.

To achieve these aims the school is organised as a community -

where God is experienced in reality;
where the truths of the catholic faith and
principles of morality are taught and valued;
where the faith is celebrated in the liturgy; and
where the Gospel is translated into daily life action.
Where each person is respected and valued as unique in the image of God.

SCHOOL ADMISSIONS

We may legally admit up to a maximum of thirty children to each year group in KS1.  The criteria for entry are clearly set out in our Admission Policy, which is available upon request.

Arrangements have been made by the Governors to admit children who are covered by the regulations as stated in the policy at times other than the September admission.

The School’s standard number is 28.

The Governing Board set the admission limit at 28 for September 2009.

The admission limit for 2009/2010 is 30.

To enable those young children who are not five years old to settle happily into school life, and to make a smooth transition from previous pre-school settings, a carefully structured staggered entry system is implemented during the first two weeks of the September term.

Parents have the option of part-time education for their children in the first term.  This is sometimes of great benefit to children who are very young in the year group and to any others who find the full day very demanding.

The class teacher and headteacher will advise if this would be appropriate for a particular child.

Parents who are considering sending their child to St Peter’s should contact the Head Teacher or School Secretary to arrange a suitable date and time to visit the school.
