Dear Parents,

This booklet contains information about school life.

I hope that you will go through it and find it useful.

It contains important information relating to school hours, the primary curriculum, discipline, homework and so on.  Equally important is the school's Pastoral care system.  This includes our Child Protection Policy and Procedures.

We are a school with well over 500 children attending.  While we are a large school we work very hard not to lose sight of our children as individuals, Every child has his or her own personality, our staff are very aware of the personalities of all children in their care, their sensitivities and habits.  Every child in this school has their own talents, academic, musical, sporting, performance and other talents.  Every child in our school is successful, we took for and recognise merit in all.  Primate Dixon is an excellent school, a school where all can grow and learn together.

We strive to work in partnership between home and school. Together, each of us wants the very best for all the children of our parish community.  We have excellent buildings and accommodation.  We buy the best resources.  We plan all our work together.  We expect that our children will do their best using all that is available to them.

We have excellent teachers who are dedicated to the children in their care.  Our classroom assistants, supervisory assistants, secretaries, caretaker and cleaning staff all play an essential role in making our school work so well.  We are thankful also to our kitchen staff for their vital work in preparing food each day.

On behalf of all in the school I wish to offer our appreciation for the very willing support and co-operation that our parents give to the school.

If you have any questions or comment please contact me at the school
