It is best to make an appointment before doing so as the Head Teacher is a shared Head with Newbigging School. Contact the school on 01382 370338 or by email at [email protected]. Once your child has been allocated a place you will be invited along to meet the staff and children, to find out more about the curriculum and to share information about your child. Parents/carers are welcome at all times to contact the school regarding any queries they may have. SCHOOL UNIFORM In order to develop a feeling of belonging and pride in the school we encourage pupils to wear the Monikie School uniform. School sweatshirts/cardigans and other school clothing are available to order online at any point throughout the year from BE Schoolwear (www.beschoolwear.co.uk) or Tesco Embroidery online (www.tesco/direct/ues.com). Both services are competitively priced with free delivery and returns, plus the school receives 5% cash back on purchases from Tesco. BE Schoolwear also have a shop in Dundee. 5 BOYS White shirt or polo shirt; red jumper or school sweatshirt; grey or black shorts/trousers; black shoes GIRLS White blouse or polo shirt; red jumper/cardigan or school sweatshirt; grey or black skirt/pinafore/trousers; black shoes (dress for the summer – optional) PE KIT Navy t-shirt, navy shorts and gym shoes in a bag with pupil’s name. Football strips are not to be worn as PE kit (PE kit including shorts & t-shirt in a bag can be ordered online from BE Schoolwear). Pupils should leave PE kit in school, in a named bag. PE kits will be sent home at the end of each term for washing. All clothing brought to school should be named or marked in some way, as it is difficult for children to distinguish their own clothing from others. PE – Health & Safety Long hair should be tied back for ALL PE activities Shoe laces must be tied Any jewellery must be removed for P.E. and swimming All personal effects (such as ear studs, watches etc.) should be removed If personal effects cannot be removed, the adult in charge will take action to make the situation safe (e.g. adjust the activity for the individual pupil or group) Taping over ear studs is sometimes used to make the situation safe. However, the adult in charge must be confident that this strategy will be safe and effective If the situation cannot be made safe, the individual pupil will not be allowed to actively participate. PARENTAL CONCERNS http://www.gov.scot/Publications/2010/11/10093528/0 Parents should contact the school immediately they have a cause for concern. It is our wish to deal with all matters as early as possible preventing them from growing into significant concerns. Please contact your child’s class teacher in the first instance or if you would prefer to discuss the issue with a member of the management team please contact Mr Jordan, Head Teacher, or Mrs Cowper, Principal Teacher. The staff will listen to your concern and agree a way forward with you. They will follow-up the initial conversation with a telephone call approximately one week later to ensure all matters have been resolved satisfactorily. THE COMPLAINTS PROCEDURE – also see link below: https://www.angus.gov.uk/council_and_democracy/complaints_and_comments/making_a_comp laint_or_comment_about_our_services Further advice on Angus Council’s complaints procedures may be found in the above link. At Monikie we seek parents’ and pupils’ views on a regular basis throughout the session about a wide range of issues, from specific learning and teaching strategies to how well we manage behaviour and how welcoming the school is when you visit. Your views play an important part in all our planning for improvement. 6 If you have any concerns, complaints or issues you’d like to discuss, please feel free to contact either Mr Tony Jordan (HT), Mrs Laura Cowper (PT), your child’s class teacher, Mrs Jill Gibson (school secretary), or the Chair of the Parent Council, Mr Colin Garness. PARENTAL INVOLVEMENT BECOMING INVOLVED IN SCHOOL Becoming involved in school The school values the important part that parents play in their children’s education and sees partnership with parents as an effective way of enhancing children’s achievements and promoting better school ethos and communication. Opportunities for Parental Involvement: During the school day: Helping in the Nursery class Art/Craft activities Sharing knowledge and expertise in some aspect of the curriculum, e.g. topic talk, history, science, health Practical activities in science, maths, social subjects, health education (e.g. first aid) or technology Reading stories to groups of children, playing reading/phonics games Supervising board games Golden Time activities e.g. board games, art and craft in small groups Running or assisting to run a Lunch Club Supporting educational visits/trips School concerts – making costumes, props, supervision of children Road safety – Cycle Training Outwith the school day: Fundraising events Trips e.g. sporting events, concerts Extra-curricular activities e.g. coaching, sports/art clubs/country dancing/school grounds – maintenance of garden/allotment areas Opportunities for Parental involvement within Early Years Support from parents is actively encouraged and valued.

Appendix 2 – ScotPHO Page 13 8. Appendix 3 – CPOP Page 14 2 1. Introduction Under the terms of the Community Empowerment (Scotland) Act 2015, community planning partnerships are required to produce locality plans to identify communities experiencing significant inequalities of outcome across a wide range of indicators. The plans are required to determine how outcomes can be improved within these communities so to reduce these inequalities. An important aspect in the preparation of these plans is appropriate engagement with community bodies. In order to inform this process, reports have been prepared for each locality. These reports point out some of the inequalities of outcomes to be considered within locality plans. This will assist to inform future decisions around how locality plans can improve outcomes for those living in our communities. Themes This briefing tackles issues around inequality of outcome based on three cross-cutting themes – People, Place and Economy. Methodology The guidance issued to community planning partnerships prior to the preparation of locality plans recommends that data is gathered from as wide a range of sources as possible. For this briefing, a number of available resources have been interrogated to produce the information and analysis shown below. These resources include valuable comparison data at the locality level and have been signposted within the report to allow stakeholders the opportunity to examine the information and analysis contained within.
