Tel: 01639 769775 Fax: 01639 769776 e-mail: [email protected] Our Vision Our vision for the future of our school is to continue to pursue higher standards through a broad and cohesive curriculum with an emphasis on independence and creativity, as it is through these that individuals can take responsibility for their own learning, make informed choices and solve problems. Our children need to develop skills and attitudes that will enable them to learn how to learn, become more socially adept and manage theirs and others feelings and emotions effectively. Our school will foster an ethos of challenge and high expectation with high self-esteem and respect and understanding of other's cultures and beliefs. We will seek to provide opportunities for experiential and explorative learning, building on what the children already know. We believe it is vital to work in partnership with parents and actively encourage them to become involved in the life of the school. We recognise the importance of continuity in the learning process and will share expertise and experience with other schools and settings. We will raise awareness of wider issues by involving members of the learning community and exploring the surrounding environment. Learning is a life long process and it is our responsibility as adults to model effective learning. This vision statement therefore applies to everyone who has a role to play in the provision of education at our school. Ethos Blaenbaglan is an English medium primary school. Through careful organisation, the school attempts to give to the children what is best in education. In all our activities we try to work as a family, where members have a sense of purpose, a sense of belonging and a feeling of being responsible to the school and to the community. We aim to provide work each day that is balanced, varied and suitable to the child’s ability and development. These experiences will help each child to learn and to become self reliant and responsible members of the community. We aim to create a happy, caring environment with an emphasis on making learning fun where positive relationships are seen as being vital to our success. Home School Agreements have been signed by the school, parents and pupils. This agreement outlines what is expected by each party and focuses mainly on ensuring our school is a warm and caring place where children feel valued and happy and are always encouraged to do their best. School Aims To create a warm, caring, happy, safe and secure environment where our children can achieve their full potential. To ensure that our children have access to their curriculum entitlement according to the requirements of the Foundation Phase and the National Curriculum. The National Literacy and Numeracy Framework is integrated into the school’s planning. To provide our children with appropriate teaching and learning activities which cater for the individual needs and abilities. To help our children learn that courtesy, good manners and consideration for others are very important qualities. To help our children develop enquiring minds and positive attitudes to learning. To provide experiences that will enrich our children’s education. To encourage parents to play a supportive role in their children’s learning. To make school a welcoming place where children want to be. To equip our children with the necessary skills to prepare them for life in this increasingly complex and technological world. The School Governors It is the duty of the Governing Body to make decisions about how the school is run. Governors have legal duties, powers and responsibilities as a body but cannot act individually. The Governing Body believe the aims of the school as set out in this Prospectus should continue to be pursued. Underpinning these aims is Blaenbaglan’s philosophy, that all our pupils are entitled to the very best education possible, which the school endeavours to provide, in close partnership with parents. Each term the following sub-committees meet and report back to the main Governing Body meeting: o Finance and Staffing o Curriculum and Special Needs o Buildings, Premises, Health & Safety and Community Other issues relating to the budget, pupil activities, school performance and the Learning Support Centre are discussed. They can only act together, not individually. Parent Governors are elected by the parents of the school. They serve, as do other governors, for a period of 4 years. Parent Governors bring the views of parents to the governing body. However, they are not delegates for parents, as they speak and act as individuals.

All parents and potential parents / carers can visit the school with prior arrangement. Children • Come to school with their parents and friends. • Always try their best in everything they do. • Be independent in managing their own possessions. • Understand and follow the school rules. • Follow the class routines. Parents • Bring their children to school and collect them on time. • Ensure that their children attend school. • Support their child by hearing them read and encouraging them to complete any tasks that their teachers ask them to do at home. • Keep the school informed of any concerns they may have about their child’s welfare. Teachers • Take responsibility for the children between 8.50am and 3.20pm. • Work closely with parents • Provide the highest quality of education and care at all times. Governors • Support and assist the Head teacher in the strategic direction of the school. Welfare The health and welfare of your child is our first priority. We will always contact you if we have any concerns. Medical Care Once your child reaches five, his or her weight, height, hearing and sight are checked by the school nurse and their general health is discussed with you. Any child who becomes ill in school will be cared for and comforted until you can be contacted. We will need your telephone numbers and numbers of other emergency contacts in school. You will need to ensure that these are kept up to date. Food and Drink We have our own school kitchen which is run by the Local Education Authority and the children can have a freshly cooked meal each day. Alternatively they can bring a packed lunch.

  • 36Acorn Directory of Services Neath Port Talbot.Pdf
    FOREWORD Acorn was set up by a group of volunteers in August 2011 to promote positive mental health and improve the emotional health and wellbeing of individuals experiencing mental health issues in Neath Port Talbot. This directory has been produced because members of Acorn identified the need for information about services and support organisations to be easily available and in one place. It is estimated that one in four people will experience mental ill health at some point in their lifetime, so mental illness will, at one time or another impact on many of our lives, either directly or through family, friends or colleagues. It is important to be able to find the right help, support and guidance easily so we hope this directory will help to achieve this. We have tried to focus on local services, but where these don’t exist we have put together a section on national organisations, websites and help lines. If you would like to comment on the directory or contact members of Acorn please email: [email protected]. For further information, please contact Emma Jones on 01639 631 246.

  • Octoberfest’ at Neath Port Talbot Libraries
    ‘Octoberfest’ at Neath Port Talbot libraries Objectives The main objective of this project was to increase the positive profile of our libraries thorough out the community by promoting our services to new sectors of the community. We were going to achieve this through the organisation of events/activities that would have the broadest appeal to members and non-members. We wanted to entice non-members into our 17 branches while also rewarding our current members (both adults and children). A decision was also made to try and involve outside agencies to try and increase the libraries appeal to organisations who may like to use libraries as venues in the future and to provide professionally organised activities. Summary NPT libraries marketing group decided early in 2009 that they wished to organise a library festival at the end of the year which would help promote our services and encourage non-members to visit our libraries. Neath Port Talbot includes 17 branches in a variety of communities and the easy option would have been to concentrate events in our three main branches but this was another objective-inclusion of all our branches. The decision to hold the festival during October was to coincide with the launch of the ‘Express Yourself’ Welsh arts competition, to allow NPT to combine the publicity for the two projects. Craft Activities It was decided that the festival would include free events/activities that would appeal to a variety of borrowers to ensure the broadest appeal. Craft activities for both adults and children were to play a prominent part in the festival.
