Our attitudes, systems and rules are drawn from and support these standards. They are:- 1. We will show respect for each other at all times 2. We will show respect for School property and another person’s property at all times 3. We will show respect for ourselves and others by ensuring that our actions do not put at risk the health and safety of ourselves or others 4. We will show respect for ourselves and others by ensuring a high standard of personal appearance and organisation. 5. We will show respect for ourselves and others by supporting a positive climate for learning SCHOOL DAY Canteen facilities are open to pupils from 8.00am with breakfast being served from 8.20 am. The main school will open to pupils at 8.00 am. The Library is open for quiet study from 8.00am No pupil should be in school before this time.

It is also a good idea to make sure all items of uniform are clearly marked with your son/daughter’s name. In September, all pupils will receive a Logbook. The Logbook plays a very important part in school life and is an excellent communication tool for both parents and teachers. Pupils will be shown and encouraged to use their Logbooks effectively so it is essential that the Logbooks are looked after and replaced if lost or damaged. Logbooks will need signing by a parent/carer at the end of each school week.

    Admissions to secondary school in 2010-2011 Children and Young People’s Services Progress House Westwood Park Drive Wigan WN3 4HH Dear Parent or Guardian This booklet tells you about the arrangements for transferring children to secondary school for the school year beginning in September 2010. This is an important time for parents and children and we want to help as much as we can. This booklet contains a lot of information which I hope will help you make your application and, whenever possible, avoid disappointment. It is important you take the time to read all the information carefully before you apply, even if you have already decided which schools you prefer. We will try to give you your preferred school, but schools have a limited number of places. If we receive more applications than places, we use our admission criteria to decide who will get a place. The admission numbers and admission criteria for Wigan schools are given in this booklet. Our website at www.wigan.gov.uk has a link to school admissions and other useful sites. You can use this site to apply for a secondary school place on-line. There are more details about this in the booklet. Each school also produces its own prospectus which contains a lot of information about that school. It is useful to visit schools before you apply, and most schools will be holding open days or evenings in September or October 2009. If you cannot go to these or want any information about individual schools, please contact the headteacher at that school, who will be pleased to help.

  • Parish Plan Final Doc Copy
    Shevington Parish Council PARISH PLAN REVIEW INTRODUCTION The review looks at progress since 2006 and sets out the way forward. The nature of the Parish Plan is wide ranging and includes matters not under the direct control of the Parish Council. Nevertheless, it does paint a picture of what is important to the community and can be used as an advocacy document when meeting with Wigan Council, the Police and other bodies. Certain of the land use elements could form the basis for a Neighbourhood Plan. Consultation was carried out on the draft plan in Spring 2016. This document should be read in conjunction with the original Parish Plan of 2006, which can be found on the Parish Council’s website: www.shevingtonpc.gov.uk. The Review follows the same topic headings as the 2006 Plan, but a few new topics are introduced and other areas expanded. POPULATION Changes in the population and demographics of the area give rise to certain issues dealt with in later sections The population of Shevington fell from 9,786 to 9,517 between 2001 and 2011 (a fall of 2.7%) following large increases since 1961. At the same time the population of Wigan Borough rose by 5.5%. All age groups between 0 and 59 in Shevington showed a decline. The largest decline was in the 30-59 age groups whilst the 60-74 and 75+ age groups increased by 628 and 186 (45% and 36.5% respectively). The age structure of Shevington’s population showed significantly lower proportions in the 0-4, 5-14 and 20-29 population bands compared to Wigan.
