Every Child Matters
Change for children is a new approach to the well – being of children and young people from birth to age 19.
The Government’s aim for every child, whatever their background or their circumstances, to be supported to meet five key outcomes.
This means that we must all work together to protect children and young people from harm and help them achieve what they want from life.
Be healthy:
In cookery club we enjoy making healthy food. At the end of term all our recipes go into a healthy cookbook - Our Year 4 children enjoyed weekly Kwik Cricket coaching in preparation for the county tournament. We won!
Stay safe:
We took part in the Guiness Book of Records Walking Bus event to publicise road safety around schools.
Enjoy & Achieve:
Key Stage 2 children enjoyed our residential visit to Kingswood. We all felt a great sense of achievement abseiling down the climbing tower.
Make a Positive Contribution:
Our school buddies help look after other children at playtime. They are always around to play games and help sort out minor problems - Our school councilors make a very positive contribution to life at Stead Lane. Elected members meet regularly to discuss how to make our school even better!
Achieve Economic Well-being:
All of our classrooms have interactive whiteboards - Our children enjoy developing ICT skills using our new suite of laptops. We use them in many different subjects.
