  3. Code of Conduct As part of God’s Family we: • Aim to always do our best We encourage each other • Treat everything and everyone with respect We ALL matter • Take time to listen We all have a voice • Look after ourselves and others We stay safe OUR SCHOOL IS A SPECIAL PLACE TO BE

  4. Mission Statement At Our Lady Of Lourdes: we live, love, learn.

  5. Home School Agreement Our Lady of Lourdes has a Home School agreement, which you are asked to sign. It sets out the school’s responsibilities towards our pupils, the responsibilities of parents and what we expect of our pupils. Our school is a place which fosters care, quality and equality for all. In order to put our aims into practice with most effect a three way partnership prevails, and our Home School Agreement exists to strengthen this partnership and makes clear the respective roles and expectations. We ask that parents: • Support the aims of Our Lady of Lourdes Mission Statement to Live, Love and Learn together, as a Christian Community. • Provide a suitable place for my child to complete homework and give regular help and encouragement, as appropriate. Ensure their homework is returned on time. • Read regularly with my child (appropriate to their age) and support them in learning their tables. • Support the school’s Behaviour policy and co-operate with behavioural procedures and sanctions should they become necessary.

  6. Aims of Assertive Mentoring • To raise standards for all children • To promote and maintain excellent behaviour • To motivate and involve children • To inform and involve parents

  7. Overview Based on 7 areas: Attendance, Punctuality, Behaviour in the classroom, Behaviour outside the classroom, Effort, Homework, and Uniform Green means attitude is excellent. Yellow means attitude is acceptable, with some room for improvement. Red means there is a cause for concern, which will signal the need for a discussion with parents.

  8. Attendance and Punctuality • For reasons of safeguarding all absences must be reported on the morning of absence • First Response: if no reason for absence has been given school will phone home • Government changes to holiday requests, not as readily acceptable. • Inform the office of any medication. Forms need to be completed before medication can be administered. These are available through the school office or on the school website.

  9. School Day • The school gates now open at 8:40am. • School finishes at 3:00pm; please ensure that you pick up your child promptly. If children have not been collected from the Year 3 and 4 doors on the playground by 3:10pm, they will be taken down to the school office.

  10. We are a Rights Respecting School! • The 'Rights Respecting School Award' (RRSA) is an initiative run by UNICEF UK, which encourages schools to place the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) at the heart of its ethos and curriculum.  A Rights Respecting School not only teaches about children's rights, it also models rights and respect in all its relationships, whether between children or between children and adults. • We were delighted to receive our RRSA Recognition of Commitment (ROC) from UNICEF and this year we will be working towards achieving Level 1 status. • Some children will have the opportunity to become Rights Respecting School Ambassadors. They will work very closely with our School Council which is also elected every academic year.

  11. Assessment • In line with Government guidelines, children will be assessed against the Age Related Expectations (ARE) for each year group from Year 1 upwards. These outline what every child is expected to know for Reading, Writing and Maths by the end of each school year. • We use Lancashire KLIPS (Key Learning Indicators of Performance), which are key learning statements, to guide teachers’ judgements as to whether children are on track to meet their year group expectations, and how much progress is being made over time. • We offer a broad and balanced curriculum and assess across all areas.

  12. Come and See Programme to teach Religious Education. All years follow same theme, different topics. Parent information sheet – support at home.

  13. Sacramental Preparation • Parish-based programme, delivered by catechists from Church. • Sacraments of First Forgiveness and Holy Communion. • Attendance at Mass is paramount. • All correspondence to Fr. Atli

  14. RSE at OLOL • Relationship and Sex Education forms a part of our PHSE Programme • Journey In Love is approved and recommended by the diocese. • PHSE, RE and RSE will have overlapping areas • We believe parents are the prime educators of their children. Our programme compliments this.

  15. Year 3 • Children know and understand the virtues essential to friendship e.g. loyalty, responsibility and experience the importance both of forgiving and being forgiven and of celebrating God’s forgiveness. Examples of Year 3 foci: • Who cares for me at home, school, parish, community? • How do you keep safe? • How do you take care of others? • How do you feel if a friend is not there for you or you are not there for them? • How can I forgive and include others as Jesus did?

  16. English • Daily guided reading groups • Daily English lesson • Spelling sessions • Handwriting • Dictations

  17. Topics in Maths this year… • Number, place value and rounding • Addition and subtraction • Multiplication and division • Measure • Fractions • Geometry - properties of shapes • Statistics

  18. Multiplication Check • From the 2019/20 academic year onwards, all state-funded maintained schools in England will be required to administer an online multiplication tables check (MTC) to Year 4 pupils. • The national curriculum specifies that pupils should be taught to recall the multiplication tables up to and including 12 × 12 by the end of Year 4.
