•
•
•
•
•
Attendance last year was 96.1%. Well above the National
average of 94.9%. We’d love to keep it that way and to
improve even further this year. Therefore…
Please ring before 10:00 am if your child is going to be
absent.
Holiday requests in term time will be turned down!
Please ensure that your child arrives promptly for the bell at
8:55am and that you collect your child from the playground at
3:30pm. Please collect your child from the class line.
If asking a family member or friend to collect children, please
ensure that the person is on the list of adults able to collect
your child in the office.
Each year prizes are given for highest class and individual
attendance and punctuality. Thank you to all the parents who
attended our attendance assemblies last year.
Homework
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
All homework will be given out on Friday and is expected to be returned by the following
Wednesday.
Time is allocated on Friday afternoons during which homework will be given out and
explained.
Homework may be different for some pupils or the same thing for all.
Homework will be in a variety of forms but will always be linked to an aspect of work in
school.
Reading books are sent home along with the child’s reading record. Reading books will be
changed on a regular basis - you can check this with teachers. It is the expectation that
parents/carers will make regular comments in the child’s reading record. Staff in school will
do the same.
Sometimes, children will require a certain amount of help to complete their tasks. However,
for it to be effective, homework must be completed by the child. Any problems, speak to the
teacher.
All homework will be marked by a member of the school staff team. Marking in GREEN
indicates work marked by the teacher and in RED by a member of the support staff under the
guidance of the teacher.

Behaviour
Our aims
• To create an environment where children and staff feel safe.
• To promote behaviour, confidence and a positive attitude to learning
through clear expectations.
• To ensure consistency throughout the school in dealing with
behaviour.
• To promote self esteem through success, self-discipline and positive
relationships.
• To create an environment in which children understand the
consequences of their behaviour and one that encourages and reinforces
positive behaviour choices.
Jubilee’s Golden Rules
We are gentle and show respect for others.
We walk sensibly throughout the school.
We listen.
We are honest.
We look after our school belongings.
Rewards
TEAM POINTS:
•All children in the school have been placed into
team groups
•They now receive team point for academic
achievement, effort and excellent behaviour.
•Winning teams are celebrated during whole school
assemblies and classes provide individual rewards
for highest team point earners.
SANCTIONS
• At Jubilee, we have three agreed levels of behaviour which help
to guide staff and children in understanding the consequences
involved with choosing certain behaviours.
• When your child receives a sanction at level 1,2 or 3, this is
recorded on a Time Out card, where his/her behaviour is
identified and explained.
• Teachers will have a record of how many cards an individual
child has accrued and these may be referred to during Parent
Conferences during the year.
• If your child receives a level 3 Time Out Card (reserved for
more serious infringements), then you will be informed by a
member of SLT and maybe asked to come into school to
discuss your child’s behaviour.
Grouping and the Role of the
Additional Teacher
• Children in 6 are going in to groups for Maths and
English each morning. This ensures that children are
taught in smaller groups where their needs can be met.
• In year 5 children will be in sets for maths each morning
with some additional support from a third teacher.
• In Year 4 and 5 smaller groups are taken out of each
class to work on specific areas of the Literacy and
Numeracy curriculum.
• During Guided Reading and afternoon sessions the third
teachers work with targeted groups of children in order to
raise attainment as well as releasing the class teacher
for planning and preparation time.
