BE AWARE The DFE have been made aware that parents are receiving an email saying ‘As schools will be closing, if you’re entitled to free school meals, please send your bank details and we’ll make sure you’re supported’.
This is a SCAM so please do not reply or enter your bank details. Thank you.
Due to exceptional demand, we have implemented a queuing system on the ordering website. This is to control the amount of traffic on the website at any one time in order to improve the user experience for everyone and speed up the voucher redemption process once past the queue.
Please note it can take up to 30 minutes to enter the website, but this can vary during peak and off-peak hours. For a shorter queuing time, we recommend trying outside of peak hours or days, which is between 10am and 5pm, and on Mondays.
Actions were taken weekend of 2nd and 3rd May that significantly reduced the queuing time performance of the website.

Our Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) Report provides details about how we support children and young people with Special Educational Needs in our school. Our SEN Information Report will provide details about how we implement our policy and practice to deliver high quality SEN provision for children and young people with SEN.

The SEN Information Report was reviewed and updated in October 2019.

This SEND Information Report should be read alongside the school’s SEND Policy, Equal Opportunities Policy and Accessibility Policy.
