SCHOOL ACHIEVEMENTS

The school has had many awards and they will be listed here.  These include awards for School Dinners, IT and the Environment.

INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL AWARD

JULY 2009

In July of 2009 we were awarded the International School Award in recognition of our work in promoting the global dimension across the school. This is a fantastic achievement which we hope to build upon over the coming year by strengthening our Uganda partnership and through the Comenius Project with schools in France, Germany, Spain and Poland

ARTSMARK SILVER 2009

This award builds on our bronze achievement last summer and recognises the emphasis the school places on art, dance, drama and music within the school.

ECO SCHOOL GREEN FLAG

This is the ultimate eco-school award. This year we have focused on targets related to transport, energy and waste. The school was assessed over half a day, during which time the assessor talked to children, toured the school and looked at a range of evidence.

FMSiS (Financial Management Standard in Schools)

This standard recognises that the school is financially well led, achieves good value for money and has clear procedures and policies in place for financial management and decision making. Assessment of the standard took place over four days and is a government requirement.

SCORES ON THE DOORS (Food Hygiene Standard)

This year Tammy has achieved a 4 star rating in the Scores on the Doors inspection for food hygiene

ACTIVEMARK 2008

Brize Norton Primary School has been awarded the Activemark 2008 for our exceptional delivery of the National Sports Strategy

AWARDS FOR ALL 2009

Earlier this year Mrs Rae applied for a grant through the Lottery funded Awards for All scheme. We have been successful in our bid for £5000 to provide opportunities for our children to take part in alternative sports at school. These include archery, fencing, team building and games. In addition to this the funding will allow us to provide healthy cooking classes and drama workshops. This is fantastic news! More information can be found at www..awardsforall.org.uk
 

ECO-SCHOOLS SILVER AWARD

The Eco-Team are pleased to announce that we have achieved the Silver Eco-Schools standard. Over the year we have been working hard to achieve our three targets:

1. To make the school grounds a great place for learning
2. To cut down on the amount of waste we create in school
3. To reduce the amount of energy we use in school.

All staff and children have worked hard to achieve our targets. Next year we are aiming for the Eco-Schools Green Flag. You can find out more information here.
