Get a Look Inside St George's School with ITV

29 April 2019
Get a Look Inside St George's School with ITV

Following a visit from ITV West Country News’ Caron and Jamie, we are excited to announce that ITV has now published a video feature documenting the fantastic improvements St George’s School has made.

See these improvements first hand and the year 6 interviews by watching ITV’s feature video here:

Get a look into how we encourage learning through our “effective teaching” and keep our children engaged by linking our literacy lessons to superheros, which are in fact taught by our very own hardworking superheros!

The children are happy and thriving in our newly improved learning environment. As mentioned in the video, our school has gone from 39% of reception children achieving their expected academic standard to 73% in just two years, which is above average! We are delighted by this and extremely proud of the progress our pupils and teachers have made.

We are pleased and exceptionally grateful that ITV visited, helping us tell the story of our school’s growth and talk about our ongoing commitment to improving the standard of teaching and learning at the school.

THE SCHOOL IS CLOSED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE


Dear parents and carers,

Following the Government announcements, we've taken the decision to close the school until further notice. We appreciate this is a difficult time for everyone as we all make personal sacrifices for the greater good of the nation. Where possible, we've tried to contact parents and carers who registered as Key Workers, those with vulnerable children, or who collect Free School Meals. If we have not managed to contact you, here is some further information:

Children of Key Workers

If you need support with childcare because both parents of the child(ren) are critical key workers, then we will do our best to support you while you're on the frontline. This school is now closed, however, we have designated schools within the White Horse Federation that are still operating as hubs. We will organise childcare for your child(ren) at one of these locations. Please contact one of the White Horse Federation Coordinators using the chat facility on the website. You can launch this by clicking the ? in the bottom left of the screen.

Children who are Vulnerable

The White Horse Federation has deemed vulnerable children to be those without adequate care or protection at home or with significant health needs. Given the current Government guidance at this point in time, we deem the safest place to be at the parent's or carer's home. If you believe this is not the case for your child(ren), then please contact one of the White Horse Federation Coordinators using the chat facility on the website. You can launch this by clicking the ? in the bottom left of the screen.

Children who collect Free School Meals

We are making every effort to ensure children who collect Free School Meals have access to food. To that effect we will be supplying parents and carers of children who collect Free School Meals with vouchers to cover the cost of 20 days’ worth of lunches from Tuesday 24th March through to Monday 4th May. The vouchers are ordered and we are currently awaiting receipt of them before the end of the week. We have contact details of those who are registered as receiving Free School Meals and will contact you directly. If you're concerned that we don't have your details, then please contact one of the White Horse Federation Coordinators using the chat facility on the website. You can launch this by clicking the ? in the bottom left of the screen.

We will endeavour to continue the learning for all our children despite these setbacks. You should know that the teaching staff at your school have worked tirelessly both day and night to manage this situation to the best of our ability. Our nation is triumphant against adversity, and we have every confidence we will return to our normal lives as soon as possible. Please take care of yourself and loved ones while we all work through this together.

Yours faithfully,

Dr Nicholas Capstick, OBE

CEO The White Horse Federation
