Principal's Message

We have come to the end of a really busy term filled with lots of incredible learning for the children. Please enjoy looking at each of the year group pages to find out all about their fabulous trips, outcomes and experiences.

Have a wonderful Easter and we looked forward to seeing you on Monday 17th April, the first day of term.

Contacting the class teachers:

If you have concerns that you would like to raise with the academy, please do so via the office email address which is contactus@langleyparkprimaryacademy.org.uk. Upon receipt, your email will be directed to the relevant member(s) of staff.

We respectfully ask that you address any concerns or issues with your child's class teacher in the first instance. If it remains unresolved then your concern will then be escalated to Mrs McRobb, Vice Principal. In the unlikely event that it continues to remain unresolved, it will be escalated to Miss Brading at that point.

We are also aware that some parents continue to email staff directly. In the event that this happens, staff have been asked to forward your email to the aforementioned email address to resume communication via the correct channels.

National Online Safety Guide

We can now access new music and movies in seconds; we can get products delivered to our door the very next day; we can chat or play games with people on the other side of the planet. For all of the remarkable benefits the digital age has brought us, however, it has also presented us with a whole new range of pressures and anxieties that, in truth, we are all still learning to cope with.

From continuous notifications inflaming a fear of missing out, to the risk of public embarrassment or slanging matches on social media, today's children and young people have stresses to manage that previous generations simply never encountered. The below guide explores these uniquely modern worries, highlighting ways to reduce the anxiety that digital devices can bring. There are also tips on reducing push notifications from apps, avoiding social media confrontation and spotting when a child has been upset by something online.
