PRIMARY SCHOOL


Bryn Deri is a proud and caring school. Our school is a happy and productive place with staff, parents and the Governing Body working supportively with each other to give our children the very best. We aim to provide challenge and opportunity inside and outside school, encouraging academic, sporting and creative development; also the children benefit from strong local community links.

Our school aims to enable all pupils to:
  • Have equal access and equal opportunities to a broad “whole” curriculum.
  • Acquire knowledge, skills and practical abilities to develop qualities of mind, body, spirit, feeling and imagination, to appreciate human achievement in art, music, science technology and literature, as well as to meet pupil’s personal and social needs and to promote a reasoned set of attitudes, values and beliefs.
  • Prepare for their adult lives at home, at work, at leisure and in the wider world as responsible and citizens.
  • Develop a sense of self-respect, the capacity to live as independent self motivated adults and the ability to function as contributing members of co-operative groups
  • Continue to promote Bryn Deri as a neighbourhood school, which is fully integrated into the community. (Bryn Deri is already a neighbourhood school where the parents have high hopes and aspirations for their children’s education).
  • Respond to parents’ interest by fostering attitudes, which will instil self-confidence in pupils, create in them a sense of personal excellence and help them to acquire knowledge and skills relevant to life and work in a fast changing world.
  • Ensure children are provided with a safe and secure environment and to work for their best interests.
Together we will aim to

Make Bryn Deri a happy, friendly, caring and safe place, which will in turn, enhance the learning process so that all pupils have aspirations for high standards and each individual will achieve his/her full potential in every skill or subject. Pupils with a high self-esteem will cope confidently with the demands of everyday life

ICT VISION STATEMENT

At Bryn Deri the school values the contribution that ICT can make for the benefit of all pupils, staff and parents and governors. To this end the school actively promotes and utilises ICT opportunities within the whole school structure and ethos and with greatest emphasis on the promotion of learning and teaching.

Our vision encompasses the following aims:

• to enable all our staff and pupils to be confident, competent, and independent users of ICT. We aim to use ICT where appropriate to motivate and inspire pupils and raise standards across the curriculum.

• to develop pupil’s ICT skills, knowledge, understanding and capability through taught IT lessons and to provide opportunities for pupils to apply and consolidate their ICT capability across all curriculum contexts.


• to provide an environment where access to ICT resources is natural and commonplace.

• to keep pace with educational developments in ICT and have a commitment to teachers having the necessary tools to do their jobs effectively.

• to promote effective learning and teaching and to use ICT to extend and develop communication skills.


This vision statement has been arrived at following consultation between staff, governors, pupils and parents and will be reviewed on an annual basis.

PTA

Bryn Deri P.T.A.

Bryn Deri Primary School has a flourishing Parent Teachers Association which raises much needed funds for the school through out the year. Events include a summer and Christmas fair, family BBQ, sponsored events, quizzes, children’s discos and a very popular summer ball. These events also play an important part in bringing together parents and staff in a friendly setting. PTA events are organised by a hardworking committee, currently chaired by Mrs Julie Sakkas. New members and helpers are always welcome – just come along to the meetings and have your say.

PTA Welcome / AGM Evening

20th September 2007

PTA Welcome / AGM Evening

Dear Parents

As we start the new term can I thank you for all the support you gave last year and ask for your continued support this year?

Usually at this time of the year we have an annual AGM of the PTA however, in past years it has not been very well attended. We thought that this year we would send out the record of finance to all parents and incorporate the AGM into our first meeting on the 3rd October at 7pm at the school.

Everyone is welcome to attend this meeting and we would particularly like to invite those who are interested in becoming a PTA member. There will be refreshments available and an opportunity to ask any questions regarding the role of a PTA committee member. Even if you do not wish to be on the PTA committee we would welcome your help in whatever way you can, even if it’s just offering to man a stall at the Christmas Fair.

Please use the form below to register your interest and return it to the school office as soon as possible.

Future Events organised so far;

Our first event for the children will be a Beetle Drive. This will be held at the school on 18th October at 3.45pm till 4.45pm. There will be a small cost for entry and this will include a drink and snack. Any volunteers to help would be appreciated.

As the last Bingo evening was such a success, another is being organised for the end of November. More details will follow closer to the time.

Thanks again,


Julie Sakkas (02920 844686)
Chairperson

FOR PARENTS

Parental Involvement With Reading

1. When reading he/she first brings his/her reading books home from school, do not expect your child to know all the words.
2. Let reading time be short, enjoyable and completely free from stress for both you and your child.
3. Do understand that much of early “reading” is memorising. At this stage this is to be expected and applauded. It is far more important that he/she goes through the book remembering the sequence and tone of the story than he/she should recognise ach word and know what it says.
4. Let your child use the picture to help him/her guess what the words say. Often an illustration acts as a prompt, reminding him/her of what happens in the story at a particular point. (Each page in the early stages of Story Chest and in many other early storybooks has been produced as an entity with both picture and words sharing equal importance).
5. Do not be disappointed (or obviously bored!) if your child wants to read the same story more than once, or even over and over again. The familiarity of a well-loved story ensures success and increasing confidence Share in his/her pleasure and try to extend it to other books without neglecting old favourites.
6. Use your child’s phonic skills to help them “build-up” unknown words, but please do not spend long on this. You can simply say any the word. It will then stay in context and be more likely to be remembered.
7. Unless your child is eager to read individual words and phrases by picking them out of the story as a whole, do not encourage or demand that he/she does so. It is tempting to want proof of his/her reading skills by isolating words for testing but remember that he/she is learning to read and understand what he/she is reading at the same time: it is unfair to break up the sense, pattern and rhythm of the text. There are plenty of other opportunities for recognising individual words – on cereal packets, advertisements, road signs, birthday cards, letters, buses sops and so on. The written word is everywhere: help your child to see it.
8. Continue the bedtime story session for as long as your child enjoys it. There is no better way to sustaining happy relationships than through the sharing of books: as time goes on both you and your children can experience the pleasure of reading not merely short stories but full length novels, a chapter or two a night.
9. “Do your own thing.” Read your own books and magazines and show your child what reading means to you. Get the message across that reading is a valuable activity for everyone.

Thinking Skills

Thinking Skills Information Leaflet For Parents

Our school promotes Thinking Skills strategies (also know as "Assessment For Learning") for our teaching and learning.

The children are learning to understand the best ways in which they learn, as individuals.

We are focusing on:

• Thinking skills e.g. comparing, contrasting, fair testing, identifying relationships and identifying patterns.
• Questioning techniques
• Paired and group discussions
• Evaluating their understanding
• Analysing and asking why
• Exploring ideas and answers
• Developing problem solving skills


Children are learning how to learn, think and feel confident in their own abilities.


The emphasis is on their using, applying and understanding of thinking processes.


How we plan to develop Our Thinking Skills:-


• Teachers will share the learning Objective for each lesson, to ensure the children fully understand what is expected of them and what they should aim to achieve.

• We will increase the time given to the children to think about their answers

• Teachers will ask more carefully constructed and open ended questions, enabling the children’s answers to be more detailed. (These are sometimes called “fat” and “juicy” questions and usually do not have obvious answers but challenge their thinking.)

• Children will be given the opportunity to share and discuss their answers and ideas with their peers

• Teachers and children will explore wrong answers to correct misconceptions

• Children follow the traffic light system, where by red indicates they don’t understand, amber, they may need support and green they are confident to continue with the task

• Children will experience different lesson styles, for example hot seating, mind mapping and problem solving, diamond ranking.


How can you help at home?



• Encourage your child to explore different strategies to achieve answers



• Ask open ended questions



• Discuss your child’s reading with them, to ensure they fully understand what has been read.



• Challenge your child’s responses, to encourage independent thinking



• If your child has specific difficulties with the writing part of a task, allow your child to share their thoughts and ideas, while you scribe their responses.

Make learning fun!
