St Chad's Catholic Primary School

[EduCativ]

At St Chad's our priority is your child's welfare and therefore there may be occasions when our concern about your child means that we have to consult other agencies even before we contact you. The procedures we follow have been laid down by the Birmingham Safeguarding Children Board. The behavior of our children is good, both in school and when taking part in learning opportunities outside of school, they never let us down.
Our parents are supportive of our Mission and we welcome them into our school for Family and Parent workshops whenever we can. We have dedicated staff who work hard for the good of the children and the wider community. We provide many opportunities for extracurricular activities, both sporting and academic. Our school is made up of many languages and cultures but our Love of God unites us every day. It is very important to be sure that your child enjoys every aspect of school life. We hope that you feel that we are doing this at St Chad's and that you can come in and talk to us with suggestions of how to make our school even better.
At St. Chad's Catholic Primary School, we follow the Archdiocese of Birmingham's curriculum strategy for Religious Education in Catholic Primary Schools called 'Learning and Growing as the People of God. The strategy gives the children the opportunities to learn in a variety of fun and interactive ways.
The New Special Educational Needs Code of Practice came into force in September 2014. The principles underpinning the new Code are that the views, wishes, and feelings of the child or young person, and their parents are crucial to ensuring the best possible outcomes for the child. So at Chad’s, we realize the importance of the child or young person, and their parents, participating as fully as possible in decisions and being provided with the information and support necessary to enable participation in those decisions. We use person-centered planning tools’ ensures that we understand what is important to our pupils now and in the future.
Our school is a very special place. We want all of our students to feel cared for, loved, nurtured, and developed in a supportive climate that strives to ensure they all reach their potential. Academic success is extremely important, but so too is preparing our young people for a rapidly changing society and to become responsible, caring, tolerant individuals with a love for life and a belief that they should reach for the stars.
We have extremely high expectations of student behavior and attainment and will never settle for the second-best. Young people only get one chance and we take our responsibility in educating your children extremely seriously. Our relationship with you as parents and carers is vital and we very much look forward to beginning that special journey together.
