The curriculum at St Vincent’s reflects in all its aspects the fact that Christ is at the foundation of our Catholic school.
Our curriculum provides opportunities in a wide range of areas of learning, for the development of each individual’s potential, value and self-worth. We also provide opportunities for individuals to develop as free, responsible members of society.
Any matters of concern or complaint should initially be brought to the attention of your child’s Class teacher. There is also a formal complaint procedure. Details are available from the school office.
The Head Teacher welcomes the opportunity to discuss any concerns parents may have.
After School Clubs: This year the junior pupils have had the opportunity to participate in football, netball, basketball, art and guitar after school. Information regarding the days and times for these activities, appears in the school Newsletter.
School Journeys: There is a residential school journey to an outdoor education centre each year for our Year 6 pupils.
Day Visits: Classes go on regular visits to places of educational interest usually in connection with a particular topic being studied.
Charging: It is school policy to charge parents for residential school journey fees. Where items of school property are lost or damaged, parents will be asked to contribute to the cost of replacement.
Voluntary Contributions: It is customary to ask parents to contribute to the cost of travel and entrance fees on day visits. No child is prevented from attending or is otherwise penalised if his/her parents do not pay. However, if the voluntary contributions fail to cover the costs involved, the trip may have to be cancelled.
Visitors to our school include:- Police Schools Involvement Team, London Fire Brigade Officers, Theatre Groups, Various Charity Representative, Road Safety Officers and Health Visitors. |
