We hope that this handbook will inform you of the way in which we fulfil our responsibilities as educators and how we look after the children in our care. Skelmorlie Primary is a small rural school in the village of Skelmorlie in the North Ayrshire coast. Our school has a particularly warm and friendly ethos and a nurturing environment for learning. We aim to provide opportunities for all children to attain and achieve their full potential and children are encouraged to develop positive attitudes towards their learning and a caring attitude towards themselves, others and our local and global environment. Our school is at the heart of the local community and we take great pride in supporting community events. We have a highly dedicated team of staff who are there to support our children academically, emotionally and socially within a safe and caring environment. All pupils and staff have a mutual respect for one another. Skelmorlie Primary has an active Parent Council who are extremely supportive and contribute to the working life of the school. They warmly welcome new parents. Prospective new parents and children are welcome to visit our school to experience the warm atmosphere and view our facilities. However, this may have restrictions due to Covid-19 and may have to be organised out with the school day. Covid-19 has impacted on some of our school routines and procedures. It has also affected pupil committees and after school clubs. However, we hope to be up and running with all of these activities when Covid-19 restrictions are eased. I have included all of this information below. I look forward to welcoming you into our school where we can work in partnership to provide the best possible education for your children. Kind Regards, Lynn Currie 4 Communities Directorate (Education Services) What we want to achieve Our Overall Aim Ensuring our children and young people experience the best start in life.

A number of security measures are used including the use of a visitors’ book, badges and escorts while visitors are within the school building. Any parent/carer or visitor at a school for any reason will be asked to report to the school office. The school staff will then make any necessary arrangements in connection with the visit to the school. It is the policy of the school that any member of staff will approach a visitor and ask for verification of identity. This measure ensures that children work in a safe and protected environment. We appreciate your support in carrying out all of the above measures. Positive Relationships The school is committed to developing a nurturing approach and promoting positive relationships. Like every community, our school is built on the relationships within it, across it and its connections with others. Every member of staff is responsible for establishing and maintaining positive relationships with each other, with parents and with partners and most importantly with the young people in their care. Our expectations of behaviour for children and young people are high. Some children

  • North Ayrshire Labour Party Manifesto 2017
    North Ayrshire Labour Party Manifesto 2017 A Vision For A Better North Ayrshire A Vision For A Better North Ayrshire North Ayrshire Labour Standing up for you It has been a huge honour to be leader of North Ayrshire Council over recent months. The change of administration happened at the blink of an eye but we have been completely focused on delivering for the people of North Ayrshire from day one. When we took over control of North Ayrshire Council on 30th August 2016, following the resignation of the previous SNP administration, we set an overarching aim of reducing inequality. I am proud of what we have achieved in such a short period of time to achieve these aims and this manifesto sets out how we will continue to deliver a new vision for a Better North Ayrshire beyond May. It is a manifesto that doesn’t accept the status quo, it is set to challenge it. A Labour administration of North Ayrshire Council will not manage austerity. We won’t accept that poverty, low life expectancy, unemployment, an attainment gap between the richest and poorest is inevitable. We will not just fight for an end to austerity but we will ensure that the resources available to North Ayrshire Council are utilised to their full potential, targeting them as effectively as possible to help North Ayrshire grow, to reduce the inequalities that exist within our communities and deliver equity of opportunity for all our people. We have achieved so much in six short months and this manifesto sets that out.

  • Appendix 4 Pupil Equity Fund in North Ayrshire
    NORTH AYRSHIRE COUNCIL 21 January 2020 Cabinet Title: Pupil Equity Funding in North Ayrshire – Progress Report Purpose: To provide an update on the use of Pupil Equity Funding (PEF) in North Ayrshire and the impact this is having on children’s outcomes. Recommendation: It is recommended that Cabinet notes the progress made to date. 1. Executive Summary 1.1 North Ayrshire Council schools have received in the region of £4.4m for each of the last three financial years as Pupil Equity Funding to reduce the poverty-related attainment gap. Up to the end of the financial year 2018-19, North Ayrshire had cumulatively spent 94% of this allocation, compared with 84% nationally. 1.2 Plans have been created in every school which outline how PEF will be spent. Almost all interventions focus on improving literacy, numeracy and health & wellbeing. In 2018- 19, 57% of overall spend was on staff costs, while 43% was used for purchasing additional resources. 1.3 Schools report good progress is being made towards planned outcomes. An increasing amount of data and supporting evidence is emerging. The overall attainment in literacy and numeracy is improving, with some reduction in the gap between learners from the most and least deprived areas of North Ayrshire. 1.4 Good practice is being shared through case studies within North Ayrshire about what is working well and collaborative conferences across the Regional Improvement Collaborative, with plans to extend this approach further over the next year. 2. Background 2.1 In February 2015, the Scottish First Minister launched the Scottish Attainment Challenge and the £750m Attainment Scotland Fund.
