OFSTED
Dear Parents/Carers,
Cheam Fields Primary Academy has undergone an Ofsted inspection last week. We are awaiting the final report and are looking forward to sharing the results with you as soon as they are available.
We would like to extend our sincere gratitude to all LEO staff for their unwavering support and dedication to the Cheam Fields family throughout this process. We also appreciate the parents who took the time to fill out surveys and offer words of encouragement.
A special thank you to our wonderful pupils, who were a true credit to Cheam Fields.
Thank you for your continued support.
REMINDERS
Considerate Parking
Please consider our neighbours if you are parking nearby
Give yourself time:
Allow enough time to pick up or drop off children as the area is likely to be busy.
Avoid yellow lines: Don't park on yellow zigzag lines or opposite them. These lines are there to keep children safe.
Park away from the school: If you park further away, avoid blocking driveways or access ways.
If you can, walk to school.
Dismissal Procedure
To ensure the safety of all students, please be reminded of Cheam Fields dismissal procedures:
Students will line up in their designated class area with their class teacher.
The teacher will dismiss students one at a time down the line.
This procedure is in place for safeguarding reasons, to ensure each child is dismissed safely and accounted for.
If you have any questions for the class teacher, please wait until all children have been dismissed to ensure a smooth and safe dismissal process.
Please inform the office at the earliest opportunity if your child is to be collected by another adult
Thank you for your cooperation in keeping our students safe.
Trading Cards
