Following on from previous feedback, we are hosting pupil progress meetings on two separate dates: 2nd July and 7th July. We have also slightly extended the meeting time from 10 minutes to 15 minutes.

Please note that Fireflies do not have a parent meeting this term – due to the EYFS Profiles due to be completed and reported to parents at the end of this term. For more information on the EYFS Profile please see the following (https://birthto5matters.org.uk/information-for-parents/).

If parents of Reception children wish to disuss anything included on their child’s end-of-EYFS report, please feel free to arrange a meeting with Mrs. Fox (fox.n@brownclee.shropshire.sch.uk).

Please see the poster below regarding a non-uniform day organised by FOBCS for donations of tombola and raffle ticket prizes – as well as bottles of wine.

Afterschool Clubs – Sum (2) 26

Class Structure ’26-’27

Although a while off, here is some information on class structures for next academic year. As with this term, there will be four classes across the school:

Next year’s Year 5 pupils will be assigned to their class later this term.

Senior Leadership Team

As part of our ongoing school improvement and development, we have taken the decision to create a senior leadership team (or SLT) – which is common across lots of primary and secondary schools. Our senior leadership team will be made up of…

• Headteacher – Mr. Harley
• Assistant Headteacher – Mrs. Cains
• Special Educational Needs and Disability Co-ordinator (SENDCo.) – Mrs. Ratcliffe

Our hopes are that this development will enable us to more strategically continue build upon the changes and monitoring to ensure the school is providing the best possible opportunities for all our children.

As part of her new role, Mrs. Cains will be taking on the following responsibilities:

• Home learning and communication
• Support staff CPD and appraisals
• Staff wellbeing

If anyone has any of the following that they no longer need, we would really appreciate any donations to school:

• Large piece of MDF/Plywood for the Summer Fayre
  • We would need this as soon as possible so that it can be decorated with the winner design from the competition
• Rocks for pond
  • Large and small
• Balance bikes/scooters/tricycles or similar
• Bike Helmets
• Green football socks and black shorts
  • These could be school’s – as we are missing lots

If anyone has any of the above and happy to donate, please email admin@brownclee.shropshire.sch.uk.

Socks/shorts can be sent in with children.

School annual mid-year reports were sent out with children today for children in Years 1 to 6. Reception reports will come at the end of the year.

A parent-feedback session will be available for all parents next half term. However, if parents wish to discuss any aspects within their child(ren)’s reports, please feel free to organise a meeting with your child(ren)’s class teacher via class emails or contacting the school office.

Please note that the children that were in Bees last term (Year 4/5), their reports were written by Mrs. Norman – and, therefore, class teachers (Year 4s – Mrs. Heath / Year 5s – Mrs. Cains) may not be able to answer all questions to what has been written on the report, but they would be more than happy to discuss things regarding your child(ren)’s current progress.

Please see below regarding an art/design competition for all children ahead of this year’s summer fayre:
