 WELCOME TO PATCHAM JUNIOR sCHOOL

  

And so we’re back once again. Apologies for this coming out to you a little later than planned.

The last half term is already one of the slightly shorter ones in the year, but with the double bank holiday for the coronation, SATs week for our intrepid Year 6s and the regrettable but necessary days of industrial action, the half term was noticeably ‘thinner’ than normal.

Speaking of our Year 6s, they did brilliantly during SATs week, worked hard and focussed throughout each of the tests.

I am a firm believer that children are ‘more than a score’ and just being tested on a narrow band of learning doesn’t tell you all there is to know about their skills across the curriculum or as individuals. That said, they will face assessments for various events or milestones throughout their lives and we are all extremely proud of their resilience shown during the week itself and all year.

Our attention now is firmly on the myriad of events this half term—sports day, parents evenings, leavers assembly, the annual ‘new class mixology’ in the coming few weeks and of course the PJS production of Matilda!

Ticket booking details can be found later in this edition, so please do come along and see the show!

Don’t force me to put any of you in the Chokey for not attending…

Miss Trunchbull

Mr Sutherland

 

 

 

 

Admissions for September 2023
Dear prospective parents and carers,
If you are considering applying for a place at Patcham Junior School for September 2023 please be aware that the closing date for applications will be in January 2023. This needs to be done, even if your child currently attends Patcham Infant School.
https://www.brighton-hove.gov.uk/children-and-learning/apply-school/apply-school-place
We are currently planning to hold two open mornings on the 6th and 7th of October at 9.15am to ensure that you are as well informed as possible about Patcham Junior School. There is no requirement to book, simply just arrive no earlier than 10 minutes before the start time.
 
If you are unable to attend one of the planned mornings, it may be possible to visit the school on another occasion, please contact the school office directly to arrange this.
 
Our website has lots of useful information, but If you would like to speak to myself or to one of the members of my senior leadership team about what learning is like at our school, then please do get in touch via the school office and we will be pleased to get back to you via email or with a phone call.
Alister Sutherland
Headteacher
