Dear Parent

Our School Handbook has been prepared to highlight areas which will be of interest to parents and inform you of the educational aims that we have for your child.

We strongly believe in working in partnership with parents. Our school is well supported by an active Parent Council who support the life of the school. Our pupil leadership groups that play an active part in improving our school and ensuring that pupil voice features in all that we do.

All staff strive to do their best for the pupils in our care so that they have the opportunity to achieve their full potential throughout their time here.

Communication is important to us and our Primary School App, Groupcall and school website are used to communicate important information to parents and carers.

The information contained in this booklet refers to the current school year and is accurate at the time of publication.

We hope this information will be helpful to you and will answer many of your questions about the school. Should you have any further enquiries, please do not hesitate to contact the school if you have any questions.

School Ethos

Our overarching vision is for our learners to feel successful, confident and responsible so that they contribute effectively to the nursery, school, our community and achieve their personal best. Within this our aims are;

Ethos

Our school is committed to providing a safe and welcoming environment in which the strengths and needs of all individuals are valued and respected.

Leadership

As a team we encourage the development and use of individual skills and talents. We share strengths and expertise for the continual improvement of our school and value the views of all members of our community.

Successes and Achievements

Our school community will have high expectations in striving to promote, recognise and celebrate success and achievement for all.

Learning and Teaching

As a learning community, we will all have a clear and shared understanding of how to provide a high-quality education which ensures progression and continuity to produce confident, successful learners. We use the Curriculum for Excellence approaches to ensure learning experiences are stimulating, challenging and relevant and enjoyable. Through Formative Assessment approaches, we will respond to and meet the needs of individual learners.

A Community of Learners

At King's Road we work towards being reflective learners, taking shared responsibility in developing skills and knowledge for lifelong learning. We work together to meet challenges through enterprising approaches, citizenship activities and a Curriculum for Excellence.

Parental Partnership statement

At King's Road we are committed to working in partnership with parents. We have an active Parent Council. All parents of the school are full members of the parent forum and can raise items for the agenda and attend meetings. The Parent Council will provide you with further information when your child has enrolled. Our Parent Council raise funds for extras in school by organising and running activities such as fairs and discos. We are always looking for new members to join. You can contact them by emailing kingsroadpp@googlemail.com or searching KRPS Parent Council on Facebook.
There are many opportunities for parents to be involved in the life of the school on an occasional or regular basis. Parents are often asked to accompany visits. We are keen to involve parents in our school. If you have any skills that you are keen to share, please get in touch. We hold regular parents' evenings to keep parents up to date with progress and for children to share their learning with you. We send out a termly newsletter to keep parents up to date with what is going on. This is uploaded onto our Primary School App. Copies are also available on the school website. A number of meetings are held each session to keep parents up to date with current trends and to share information. P7 children meet with High School staff and Nursery children spend time in their new classes prior to the start of the session. If your child does not attend King's Road Nursery opportunities are available for them to attend the P1 induction sessions.
