From the Chair of Governors, Mr. Jim Taylor
It is a great pleasure to welcome you, on behalf of all staff, governors, parents and children to Peterbrook Primary School’s website. The website is a place where you will find information about the school, its location, events, term dates and current activities, including those of the PTFA. It provides us with an opportunity to celebrate the success of the school and it is not just for parents. Children visiting the site will find much to interest them on the numerous ‘Kids’ Pages’.
Overall the website is the result of a concerted effort by all at the school to provide as much information as possible to those who visit the site for whatever reason. Regular updates and maintenance keep it topical and our thanks are due to all those who created and continue to maintain the site.
From the Headteacher, Mr. Steve McGaw
On behalf of the pupils, parents, staff and governors welcome to Peterbrook Primary School’s website. I hope that you will find it enjoyable, interesting and informative. Our principal aim is … ‘to provide an environment where individuals – both children and staff – feel valued through an ethos of caring and encouragement, understanding and appreciation’ …
We endeavour to create and celebrate opportunities for all. Our motto is “If you believe it, you can achieve it”. By valuing the contribution of all members of our school community we have created a vibrant and dynamic learning environment.
As an Investor in People organisation we give the professional development of all staff a high priority, which has a direct and positive impact on our children’s learning. We are also a 'Gold Artsmark' status school, as recognised by the Arts Council, for the quality and breadth of arts activities that our pupils engage in to support their learning.
Peterbrook parents are generous with the support they give to their children, as well as the wider school community through the activities of our thriving PTFA. Our Parent Council act as the formal parental voice that is crucial in contributing to and shaping our School Improvement Plan. It is also an opportunity for parents to bring our attention to those matters which they feel are important in helping them to support their children in school. As active partners in their children’s learning both groups are fully involved in shaping our school’s direction in terms of provision and resources.
Our school Governors play a leading role in shaping and guiding our vision, and they are committed to ensuring the very best opportunities for our pupils through their ‘hands on’ involvement. Our Governing Body has a wide range of duties and powers and has a general responsibility for promoting high standards of educational achievement.
Last but never least, it is our pupils who make Peterbrook a special place. We are proud of our pupil’s academic performance and their success and achievements gained through the extensive range of musical, sporting and extra-curricular activities we offer them. Uniquely, links with our four International partners around the world help our children to nurture friendships in the global community.
If you would like to discuss with me any aspect of our website and its future roles, then please feel free to make an appointment at our school office or send me an e-mail.
