The details of the methodologies for calculating #KS2 #Progress scores and #KS4 #Progress8 will be released in the Autumn term. In the meantime, this blog from last year is still a useful and relevant reminder about what we mean by 'progress' and how we try to evidence it.

We are proud of our 'GOOD’ school and delighted that @Ofsted thinks so too. Our pupils enjoy being part of our community and joining in with the activities we plan for them every day. Let’s hear what they had to say during the inspection before the summer holidays. #LearnAndPlay

Year 2 had a wonderful time on their school trip to St Paul's Cathedral to learn all about The Great Fire of London. They represented our school beautifully and have learnt lots that they are ready to share in the classroom! #SchoolTrip #KS1History

A huge thank you to everyone who donated items to our harvest collection this year. Your generosity will make a huge difference to DENS - Helping Rebuild Lives and will support many families. Thank you.

Every Thursday afternoon, our choir begins practicing their pitch-perfect notes. To inspire our budding performers, we treated them to a trip to the Cambridge Theatre to see Matilda The Musical.

We have had the most amazing day at Wembley Arena singing Young Voices. Fantastic memories for St Paul’s choir. We loved it!

The Masked Reader is back next week! Can you guess which teacher is behind the mask? #WorldBookDay #MaskedReader

The St Paul’s Masked Reader was back for 2024 today. We listened to the stories and the clues and then we voted…   After listening to all of the Masked Readers, we found out that it was…Mrs Paine as Sunflower! We cannot wait to see who will win! Who’s that behind the mask?

So Tortoise, Duck, Globe and Sushi are through to day 2…

Mask mania is spreading around school and favourite readers are emerging. Today duck was unmasked ! Who loves whistling Easter Jubilation, Christmas and carrots?  It was Mrs Derby behind the mask!  Could tortoise be Mr Brockway? Year 3 think they recognise globe. Who is Sushi?

Year 3 were right! Miss Knights was Globe as she was unmasked today!  Sushi and Tortoise are in the final for World Book Day tomorrow. Who will win?  We will all be cosying up in our PJs with our books. #WorldBookDay2024 #MaskedReader

So…we have our winner. Today the runner- up was announced as Tortoise was unmasked and revealed to be…Mr Gunning! That means that Sushi has won our Masked Reader 2024. But who is that behind the mask? All to be revealed tomorrow!

The winner of the Masked Reader was…Mrs Blackburn. Well done St Paul’s as you guessed it. Thank you to all of our Masked Readers 2024. See you again next year.

Get into the festive spirit and support our school by coming to our Advent Market! Saturday 30th November!

Good luck to all of our Mini London Marathon runners today! Joe Wicks
