  • The Benefice Profile of Yarm with Kirklevington, Picton and Worsall
    The Benefice Profile of Yarm with Kirklevington, Picton and Worsall St Mary Magdalene, Yarm Aerial photographs taken by Harry Brown All Saints, Worsall A message from the Rt Revd Paul Ferguson, Bishop of Whitby Welcome, and thank you for your interest in the post of Rector of Yarm with Kirklevington, Picton and Worsall. This post offers exciting possibilities for ministry in a varied town-and-country setting. As you will read in these pages, this is a benefice of two parishes comprising the market town of Yarm and a group of nearby villages. This relatively new grouping was formed under the leadership of the previous Rector, Canon John Ford, who was also Area Dean and who retired in 2020. The communities are conscious of their very long history — Yarm is an ancient fording place over the River Tees, and the villages have been the source of a wealth of Saxon and Anglo-Danish archaeology — but they are not in any sense locked into the past. Retail and education are key to their economy and culture; rural industry still has a significant part to play, and there is extensive new house-building and an increasing population. The new Rector will find a secure foundation to build on, willing and able lay leaders, and a shared commitment to worship well planned and led in a generally liberal Catholic style. Although there is mention in this profile of concern that congregations are ageing, in fact there is more involvement with families and younger people, and with external institutions, than would be found in many other places.

  • School Prospectus
    “Mighty oaks from tiny acorns grow” PRESTON PRIMARY PROSPECTUS 2020-2021 PRESTON PRIMARY 2020-2021 Dear Parent, Welcome to our school. If your child is about to join us and you are experiencing our school for the first time, we welcome you warmly as parents and look forward to a happy and successful partnership over the coming years. If you already have a child at our school, we are pleased to renew the link. We hope you find the information in this brochure both helpful and informative. However, no document or brochure can fully describe every aspect of our school, so if there is anything you are unsure about please don’t hesitate to ask either myself or one of the staff, and we will do our best to help you. Preston Primary School is a relatively small school. As teachers, we view this as one of the great strengths of our school because we know every child and are able to cater for their needs, both in and out of the classroom. We endeavour to make time to listen and offer advice and help to both children and parents alike. We view the happiness and security of a child as of paramount importance to their long term intellectual and social development. We encourage a happy, relaxed yet purposeful atmosphere within school, based on mutual respect, care and thought for each individual within our “school family”. Confidence in a good school comes from knowing and understanding what is happening within it. We hope that by regular contact with school through educational and social functions, parent/teacher consultation meetings, regular newsletters, open days and by visiting, that you will soon come to know all the members of the school team.

The SOP gives information about the number, types and sizes of schools maintained by the Council, Academies and Free Schools. The Council does however have a statutory duty to ensure that there are enough school places in the borough to meet demand. The Council must therefore plan, organise and commission places for all state-funded schools in Stockton so that high standards are maintained, diverse school communities created and fluctuating pupil numbers are managed efficiently. The demand for school places changes over time - this document is considered to be ‘live’ and, as such, is updated every two years.
