Get involved

Get involved

Small things make a big difference!

Being rooted in the community enables you to identify the issues that matter most. Children matter.

You can make a big difference to the children and your community

You are best placed to engage with and support your local school and make a positive difference by donating some of your time to help them.

Do you want to get involved in school life? Here are some of the ways that you can help:

  • Join a friendly and sociable group who run the Parents, Teachers and Friends Association (PTFA). They help raise funds for the school by organising events. This can range from planning an event, running a stall, to litter picking after bonfire night!  Click here to find out more.
  • Reading with the children during school time. The children love reading to volunteers, who listen and help grow the childrens’ confidence
  • Become a School Governor. School governors make a valuable contribution to children’s education, opportunities and futures. You do not need to be a parent or have an understanding of the education system, just the necessary skills, character and time to contribute. Schools benefit from a range of professional knowledge on their governing board including education, finance, human resources, legal, marketing etc.
  • Helping on school trips. The children sometimes have the opportunity to visit the theatre, a farm, a planetarium – anything that will inspire and educate! To ensure the safety of the children, helpers are needed alongside the teachers to escort the children.

To comply with our safeguarding regulations, if you would like to be involved in school life you may be required to have a valid DBS check obtained through the school or be registered on the Update Service.  We ask for a £10 voluntary contribution towards the cost of processing the DBS application. This then becomes your certificate for use elsewhere if required. For further information please contact the school office.
