    North and South Cowton Community Primary School Prospectus 2017/18 Enjoy School – Be Ready for Life North And South Cowton Community Primary School Prospectus 2011/12 Welcome to our school prospectus. My name is Trevor Watson and I am Executive Headteacher of North and South Cowton Community Primary School. This is my first year in post where I took over from Mr Briggs who had been Head for 6 years. The school is a happy and successful school, which was judged as good by Ofsted in March 2017. We have two buildings in the village of North Cowton, which accommodate our two classes; one infant class, catering for children from Early Years Foundation Stage up to year 2, and one junior class for years 3 to 6. However, the school is not constrained by these physical boundaries and truly extends into the heart of the community. We have a dedicated and talented team of staff, volunteers and governors, who work hard to ensure that all our children develop to their full social, sporting and academic potential. We are an inclusive school, which recognises and values the different talents and abilities of everyone who is part of our community. We strive to ensure that our children are healthy and we have a reputation for sporting success. As a small school, all our children have the chance to participate in a range of team sports; the children learn to support each other and respect each others strengths. This maturity and team work has consistently resulted in winning performances, and contributes significantly to the children’s personal and social development.

As part of this update a range of local sources have been used, including contact with and feedback from local Parish Councils and Meetings, information held by the Council, desktop studies, web resources and site visits to the relevant settlements. Maintaining the Information It is the nature of such studies that they date very quickly; therefore we will update this study on a regular basis.

At its heart is the Heritage at Risk Register, an online database containing details of each site known to be at risk. It is analysed and updated annually and this leaflet summarises the results. Each of our nine local offices now hosts a dedicated Heritage at Risk team, delivering national expertise locally. The good news is that we are on target to save 25% (1,137) of the sites that were on the Register in 2010 by 2015. From the historic battlefield at Towton to ancient barrows on the Wolds, this success is down to good partnerships with owners, developers, the Heritage Lottery Fund, Natural England, councils and local groups.
