Some Staffing Updates...

Dear Parents,

I am writing to share some information regarding staff changes within school.

Mrs. Felton, one of our longest-standing Teaching Assistants, will be leaving us at the end of June after twenty years' service to the school. Mrs. Felton's dedication to the children has been immense and many of you may wish to say your own goodbye to her before she leaves. 

We will be recruiting a teaching assistant shortly - if you know any qualified TAs who would be interested in this role, please tell them to keep an eye out on the Alrewas Telegraph and WMJobs, or come in for a conversation with me about the post. 

Secondly, we will be saying goodbye to Mrs. Rachael McCarthy at the end of the academic year. Rachael has been a real rock to me this year, as well as working tirelessly in her role as Designated Safeguarding Lead and Deputy Headteacher. She is making the move from a mainstream school to a special school, which I know will allow her to make an incredible difference to people's lives. 

As you may know, this week we have been recruiting for a class teacher. After a rigorous process, we were pleased to recruit Mr. J. Minor, who will be joining our class in September. Mr Minor managed to wow year one with a very lively lesson involving the Big Bad Wolf! We look forward to welcoming him in to our community.

There will be further staffing announcements when I am able to do so, including information about staff allocations and school leadership going forward.

If you have any queries, please do get in touch. 

Kind regards,

Ellie Wilson

Headteacher
