Wear it Gold day!
Mon 30 Sep 2024Last Friday we had 'Wear it Gold' day at Glade Hill to raise awareness of the Children's Cancer and Leukemia group charity, a cause close to all our hearts as a pupil of ours was treated for a brain tumour as a baby, and received support from this charity.
Thank you everyone for participating. You looked amazing! Thank you for all the donations too!

Headteacher Letter - Start of Au 1
Thu 05 Sep 2024Dear Parents and Carers of Glade Hill,
Welcome everyone to the 2024.2025 academic year at Glade Hill Primary and Nursery School.
I know this is going to be another fabulous year at Glade Hill, and I look forward to seeing all our children continuing to show their GOLDEN behaviour and SPARKLY learning. I know that all our staff will be striving to ensure that all children become the best learners that they can be.
Our three Priority Areas for School Improvement this year are:
- Improving the teaching of Maths to improve outcomes at the end of KS2.
- Further develop our Phonics teaching and assessments.
- Developing our EYFS provision so that our youngest children get off to the best start possible at our school.
One important way that you can support us with these goals, is continuing to make sure that your children are in school as much as possible. Research shows that children with over 95% attendance achieve better grades, achieve their best and are happier and more settled in school. We have lots of incentives to celebrate excellent attendance that will continue this year, including class trophies and attendance badges/ medals.
Another way that you can support us with these goals, is by making sure that you help your child to complete any homework given. Regular practice of key number facts such as counting, number bonds or times tables is essential for progress in maths. Reading with your child as much as possible, is also essential to help your child make progress in applying their phonics as well as achieving well in English. We have some exciting updates about our Reading Rewards to share with you later this week, based on feedback from our children and parents/ carers at the end of last term.
I am also very excited to say hello to our new F2 children (Reception) in Amazing Acorns. We hope you are enjoying your learning and I know that you will quickly settle in and thrive at Glade Hill. You have already made a great start.
To our Year 6 children, you are already acting as fantastic role models for our school community, showing us all how to be GOLDEN and to SPARKLE in our learning every day. I know that you will continue to impress me with your mature attitudes and behaviour. Keep up the good work!
Thank you in advance for your support this year, and I look forward to seeing you all soon.
Kindest regards, Mrs Anna Stapleton - Headteache
