Outside we have three playgrounds and extensive playing fields. The school is maintained by Derby City Council and is a co-educational day school. The planned admission level for our school is 45 pupils. All children who live in the catchment area are entitled to a place in the school. Those children living outside this area may also be considered for admission if they have brothers or sisters in the school or live very close. Children are admitted to our nursery when they are 3 years old. At the end of their primary education at Beaufort, the children transfer to a range of secondary schools across the city and also in Derbyshire. We have established links with six feeder secondary schools. • TOGETHER WE SUCCEED • TOGETHER WE SUCCEED • 2
• TOGETHER WE SUCCEED • TOGETHER WE SUCCEED • Our School is a Full Service Extended School and aims to provide a range of services and activities, often beyond the school day, to help meet the needs of our pupils, their families and the wider community. We have OFSTED registered childcare provision available before school, after school and during the school holidays (except Christmas). We are open from 7.50a.m. to 6.00p.m. during term time and 9.00a.m. to 6.00p.m. in the holidays. Parents can also buy in extra sessions for nursery age children in our Early Years Unit. Job Centre Plus visit our school regularly to support parents with claiming tax credits and finding out about local training/work opportunities. School newsletters are distributed regularly which provide details of all our other services, including Parent and Toddler Group, Toy Library, Stay and Play sessions and Baby Massage. We are also a partner in Derwent Children’s Centre along with Derwent Stepping Stones and Revive Healthy Living Centre. This enables us to provide additional services for our families. PARENTS AND CARERS We regard parents/carers as partners and firmly believe that children learn most effectively when parents and school work together to further each child’s education. Teaching Staff are normally available at the end of the school day. If you wish to see your child’s teacher, please contact the school office so this can be arranged. The Headteacher or Deputy Headteacher is available at the beginning and end of the day. The office staff will be happy to arrange a time for you to meet with them. We celebrate each child’s achievements and parents/carers are invited into school for “good work” assemblies, performances, workshops and other activities. Times are set aside each term to meet your child’s class teacher at parent interviews. An increasing number of parents/carers offer to help in school or on visits. All helpers in school are required to undertake safeguarding checks. We welcome the support offered, so if you are able to help in school, please talk to the Headteacher. BEAUFORT PARENT GROUP We have a group of parents and governors who regularly organise events to raise money for the school. If you are interested in working with this group, please have a chat to our Extended School Co-ordinator. • TOGETHER WE SUCCEED • TOGETHER WE SUCCEED • 3
