Making an "All About Me" Poster

Parents Guide to Phonics

At Homefield Primary we have chosen Little Wandle Letters and Sounds Revised as our systematic, synthetic phonics programme, to teach early reading and spelling.  Please click here to read more about the scheme.

Toilets and School Readiness

Children starting in reception is an exciting but also potentially anxious time for parents. If your child isn’t quite clean and dry, or they have a medical condition such as constipation, it can be an additional source of worry. What if they have an accident in class? How do I talk to their teacher about this? Click here for tips and information to help take the worry out of starting school.

Hot School Meals

All children in EY to Year 2 have the opportunity to have a hot cooked meal in school. These meals are provided daily by Chartwells. Click here to find out more information.

Pupil Premium Entitlement

Leave From Learning

Parents have an additional legal duty to ensure their child attends school regularly. This means their child must attend every day that the school is open, except in a small number of allowable circumstances, such as being too ill to attend or being given permission for an absence in advance from the school.

Full details regarding attendance and absence can be found here.

Penalty Notice

The Department for Education has recently introduced a new National Framework for Penalty  
Notices issued for unauthorised absence in term time. These changes came into force for Penalty  
Notice Fines issued after 19th August 2024. Read the full notice here.

Amazon Wish List

We have an Amazon Wish List!  You can view this by clicking on the following link: https://amzn.eu/cbRFoOF

Any gifts are greatly appreciated!  The items on our list are to support teaching and learning.  As you know, schools are in a financial crisis and we need as much help as possible.  We know that parents/carers love to support Homefield and we thought this was a convenient way to help out.  Also, sometimes to get free delivery on goods you have to spend a certain amount and some parents/carers may choose to send us something from the list to make up the ‘difference’.  Please do share the link with friends and family!  Thank you!
