Dementia Friendly School Status
We have successfully achieved Dementia Friendly Status promoted by Lichfield Diocesan Board of Education. We are very proud to be able to support all members of our local community.
We want dementia awareness to become part of school life, so that we name and face dementia together. We want to be a school which supports people affected by dementia – both someone with a diagnosis and their family/carers. We want:
- ALL IN OUR SCHOOL COMMUNITY (pupils, staff and families) to be aware of dementia and to understand how to stay in step as patterns change through advancing dementia.
- ALL IN OUR SCHOOL COMMUNITY (pupils, staff and families) affected by dementia to be welcomed, understood, respected and supported.
Please follow the link through home- well being for families - Dementia Friendly School
On the 19th & 20th March 2024 we had our Ofsted Inspection.
Please see the School Inspection report below:
We welcomed the SIAMS inspector into school on Wednesday 13th September. Please enjoy reading the report
