Please make sure to check ParentPay to book your child's school dinners for the week commencing 10th July.

Parents will not be required to tell us what meal they want, just that they would like a dinner ordered and the children will then pick what they want on the day. Please bare in mind this is a test run fun for what will happen in September, so we can iron out any issues now (hopefully!)

Please note all parents will need to do this including any child(ren) on universal (KS1) or free school dinners.

NEU Industrial Action

Newsletter 15- 26th May 2023

Tuesday the 2nd May

Due to industrial action taken by the NEU only Sycamore (Year 3 & 4) and Redwood (Year 6) classes will open on Tuesday- All other classes are closed

Dodgeball club will continue as normal  for Years 3,4 & 6-

Due to industrial action taken by the NEU only Redwood (Year 6) class will open today- Thursday 27th April

We have been advised by the National Educational Union (NEU) due to their ongoing dispute with the Department of Education that their teacher members intend to take industrial action. The union had declared seven days of strike action in February and March, though any individual school will only be affected by four of them. The next is scheduled for 15^th and 16^th March in our region.

I can inform you that some schools within the High Peak area who have members of the NEU union will be partially or completely closed. This will affect certain classes at Buxworth School next Wednesday, 15^th March and Thursday, 16^th March.

No clubs will be running on Wednesday, 15^th March or Thursday 16^th March. Swimming class will also be cancelled. The Residential Trip to Wales will be going ahead as planned. 

I apologise for any inconvenience caused and I can only reaffirm that this is not a decision teachers come to lightly. If you need any more information on why the teachers are striking, here is a link Pay up : Strike action | NEU.
