  A new Mayfield Primary School is emerging…
                We will challenge.
                We will dare to do.
              We will make mistakes.
                  We will learn.

         We are changing the landscape.
Knowledge Handbook 2021/2022 - A new Mayfield Primary School is emerging
WELCOME TO MAYFIELD
A warm welcome to everyone as we continue our journey building our new Mayfield for our school community. Covid-19 has
caused huge disruption and dominated every aspect of our lives since March 2020, but it will not become a barrier to our progress
– just another hurdle that we will climb.

So, in a greatly interrupted and hard to predict first six terms we have been busier than any school I have known changing our
systems, methods, approach and the outward perception of our school. As an experienced headteacher, I know that changing a tide
that has built over long periods is not a simple process. Losing a reputation is instant, building one takes years. I have learned much
in these early days and seen how deep rooted and historic certain beliefs or myths are about our school but I have taken great
pleasure in listening to the growing number of positive statements and remarks I am hearing across the community and within local
authority circles about the emergence of a ‘new’ Mayfield.

When building a new journey and breaking cycles and perspectives that are almost habitual, we will have to be strong, we will have
to challenge some beliefs and behaviours. We will not agree all of the time. But this is good. No-one wants things to remain the
same and to bring about long lasting improvement, rather than short term fixes, you have to ‘break a few eggs’ to coin a phrase.
Changing hearts and minds and bringing everyone with us is a massive challenge but with patience, a realization about the potential
and passion that now exists and taking the hand of trust will ensure that the vast majority of us can work together to change the
traditional landscape. What had gone before needed to change. It is changing.

Mayfield is a school that can take advice, possess humility, be strong and have conviction when we believe we are making decisions
for the right reasons, yet also know that we are human and will constantly learn, as we all should, as we move everyday through life.
We will make mistakes. We should do if we are trying to improve and be more than the school has been before. Mistakes are the
greatest teacher and the success that follows will be all the more secure because of it. This is part of our vision for our children and
staff. Why be afraid just because someone may think you can’t do it or wishes to keep you in a particular place because it suits their
belief?

We will never be afraid to try new ideas and initiatives or make changes that we believe will improve the social and academic
experience for our children. I expect us to be bold and to dare to do. I expect the best from everyone at Mayfield - we will not
compromise as, over the years ahead, we become ever stronger in our teaching, learning and behaviour expectations - a positive,
determined attitude to school life is a necessity for everyone who walks through our door.

Be in no doubt that teaching is our passion. It is our drive. It is more than a job - it is a way of life. It is our reason for being here.
Everything is geared towards valuing every social, moral and academic achievement in a climate that enables that deeper,
independent, resilient, personalised learning that many would describe as unlocking the
spiritual development in everyone.

'Valuing Every Achievement' is a constant thread. A vision that is everywhere in our
school. The new ‘When I Grow Up…’ curriculum carries and embodies this as we
aim to send our children onto the next stage in their lives socially and academically
ready, in equal measure, to make a difference to our local community and beyond.

I always talk honestly, with passion and belief. I don’t believe in blinding people with
the same old worn out words, methods and platitudes. We have a once in a
generation chance to make Mayfield’s long term future more than some would hope
it to be.

Keep turning the page, we can achieve so much and change the landscape….

THE MAYFIELD CURRICULUM

                                                             presents

                                NO-ONE CAN KEEP YOU DOWN. YOUR FUTURE IS IN YOUR HANDS.

      The staff at Mayfield have spent much of the last 18 months evaluating, planning, preparing, trialling and launching our new
curriculum. Working fully to the National Curriculum, using its expectations, its progression and its coverage to make an experience
right for our children. Focusing particularly upon how our children learn best and implementing the key knowledge that our children
                                                       need to know and retain.

Now into Stage Two (with the second term of this stage commencing in Autumn Term 2021) we look forward to implementing the
latest version of our planning and preparation and studying carefully its impact on our children’s progress and learning experiences.

                                           additional, supporting information.

                                     SYSTEMS & ROUTINES
ASSEMBLY
Friday represents our weekly celebration awards assembly. Taking place in our ABC Theatre under the lights and sound of a very
special atmosphere we celebrate and value our children’s achievements across the week. Assemblies take place in smaller year or
key stage formats to ensure a tight pace and maximum engagement.
Vision awards include: TA Independence Golden Ticket; two Teacher Award nominees per class; two Headteacher Award’s per
school each week; attendances for the week including the award of our Golden Ship trophy; House Point updates;
‘Don’t Miss A Minute’ Grand Prize Draw.

ARRIVAL/COLLECTION PROTOCOLS – INCLUDING SCHOOL ACCESS
Drop off and collection of all children before and after school and after extra-curricular clubs is from the playground side of school
only. There is no access through to the playground from the front drive and main entrance of school.
Once the playground gates are locked (9.10am) entrance to school is solely via the main entrance at the front drive. All late arrivals
or early departures must use this access route.
If children are undertaking clubs in the ABC Theatre, then families should wait by the double white theatre entrance doors opposite
the main reception entrance.
Families gather in their large bubble spaces for drop off and collection times. Please keep access points and designated pathways
clear
Unfortunately it is not possible to speak with class teachers before school as they are required to be in class from 8.40am as
children are arriving in school. Teachers will be available to chat after school when children are released to families at the end of the
day. Any morning messages can be passed via the main office, the school leaders and pastoral team on morning duty or the teaching
assistant team who are on duty outside the relevant entrances at this time before school.
Any children not collected in due time will be taken by the staff on duty to the main reception to be safely collected from there.
School reserves the right to refuse access to the school site for any individual should this be deemed necessary.

ASSESSMENT
Teachers are required to submit summative data about pupil progress three times a year at Christmas, Easter and in late June.
Progress and attainment information will be shared annually via the school report and, as requested by families, at Parents Evening
or at other stages as required/requested.

ATTENDANCE AND PUNCTUALITY
Morning registration is officially from 8.45am to 9.00am.
Gates will open at 3.00pm with the following finish times.
Early Years at 3.05pm, Year 1&2 at 3.10pm and Years 3, 4, 5&6 at 3.15pm. Afternoon registers are taken immediately
upon these sessions commencing and close five minutes later. If children arrive in class before the end of morning registration they
should be marked as present as usual. Senior leaders and/or Pastoral Team will have noted and recorded any late arrival before the
close of registration. Should a child arrive at any stage of the day after morning registration, this will be recorded using the
appropriate coding at the main school office. Collection areas will remain in place for families to wait, assisting with sight
lines and leaving pathways clear.
Afternoon registration is at 12.30pm in Early Years/Year1/Year 2.
Afternoon registration is at 1.00pm in Year 3/Year 4.
Afternoon registration is at 1.15pm in Year 5/Year 6.

IF YOU WISH TO DISCUSS ANY ASPECT OF YOUR CHILD’S EXPERIENCE AT MAYFIELD PLEASE FOLLOW THIS LINE OF
COMMUNICATION:
1) Speak in person with the class teacher after school or contact via the main office or phone.
2) Contact the Key Stage Leaders (Mrs Gaskell for Years 3/4/5/6 and Mrs Miller for Years 1/2/Early Years) via the main office or phone.
3) Contact the Deputy Headteacher (Mrs Miller) via the main office or phone.
4) Contact the Headteacher via the main office or phone.

Any request to speak directly with the headteacher without following the above process will see this referred to the appropriate level before any
immediate escalation.
* Parents should not contact any teacher using the teacher’s own personal or school email address. No class teacher will respond to emails sent
directly to them.

ENRICHMENT TIME
As part of our new ‘When I Grow Up…’ curriculum, we have devised a new concept for when our class teacher’s undertake their
planning, preparation and assessment time. A team from within school will be delivering a small group offer, to selected year groups,
in our ‘creator’ subjects which allow for children to deepen their gifts, talents and abilities with additional time and greater tuition.
These areas include physical education, art, speaking and listening, PSHE and music. Again, we are attempting to push boundaries and
approach our teaching and learning in ways which meet our vision and expand our offer into new areas.

EXTRA-CURRICULAR CLUBS
This forms part of our ‘When I Grow Up….’ Curriculum enrichment. Clubs will be created adhering to class or year group bubbles
in 2021/2022. Clubs will often run for at least one half-term with some running across the school year or a full term. Clubs will
cover a wide range of subjects from across the curriculum, but will have a larger number based upon our ‘Fit to Learn’ active lives
focus. Clubs led by school staff are free for all children. There may be a cost in clubs are delivered by external providers.
Please see APPENDIX G for latest offer and full information. (Please see our Family Learning Mentor - Mrs Carlton - if
cost would prohibit involvement, we will not let this prevent participation.)

HANDWRITING
School follows a Handwriting Policy which teaches cursive script from the outset.
Pen Licences are used in Key Stage 1 and determined by the class teacher once handwriting and presentation is consistent, fluent,
highly legible and tidy. Pen Licences can be withdrawn. Pens are used for all children (as deemed appropriate) from year 3 onwards.

HOLIDAYS IN TERM TIME
These are not permitted and will not be authorised unless in extreme exceptional circumstances. Anyone intending to take a holiday
in term time must complete a request form outlining reasons for this. These can be collected from, and returned to, the main
school office.

HOMEWORK
Throughout school children are expected to read daily, learn phonic patterns/spellings, multiplication tables and will receive a 15/20
minute English or maths task per week. Mathematics or English tasks should not be set during school holidays and should begin in
week 2 of Autumn Term and continue to the end of Summer Term. Marking to check completion will be undertaken. School does
not operate a sanction or additional completion session for incomplete homework and instead will contact the family concerned to
discuss reasons why homework is incomplete and how school can assist with the avoidance of future issues in a supportive manner.
Knowledge Handbook 2021/2022 - A new Mayfield Primary School is emerging
HOUSE SYSTEM
There are four ‘houses’ named after a ‘British Olympic Hero’. Your child will be allocated a house upon entry to Mayfield.
The school reward system involves the use of these houses. A collective reward is shared twice a year (February & July) for the
leading house.
Anthony JOSHUA – Red (Super Heavyweight Olympic Gold 2012)
Katherine GRAINGER – Green (Rowing Olympic Gold 2012 + Olympic Silvers)
Adam PEATY – Blue (Swimming Olympic Gold 2016)
Sarah STOREY – Yellow (Swimming & Cycling Paralympic Golds)
LEADERS IN LEARNING, SAFETY AND EQUALITY
We operate a ‘Leaders in Learning, Safety and Equality’ system using different categories. It works at 3 levels:

Play Leaders
Leaders are chosen to take on responsibilities for running and supporting lunchtime supervision (jobs and activities both inside and
outside). They will be expected to fulfil their role as a leader for at least a term. The leaders can be chosen from year 4, 5 & 6.
A leader may be asked to, wish to, continue beyond one term. Mrs Lloyd & Mr Denton will lead upon this.

Prefects
Prefects will be chosen based on exemplary attitudes and behaviour, and may fulfil numerous roles around school such as Star of
Safety & Respect Leaders, Don’t Miss A Minute Rewards and Parents’ Evening Guides. The role of prefect is a huge personal
accolade and so children will be expected to display outstanding attitudes to school life at all times in the day and act as role models
for the whole school. Prefects are a position reserved for children in year 6 at this stage. Prefect have permission to wear their
assigned light blue jumper as part of their uniform.

Subject Council
A new model being developed during the 2021/2022 academic year alongside subject leaders.

LEARNING ENVIRONMENT/CLASSROOM LAYOUT
Classroom layout is essential to the implementation of our core school intent. They are part of an active, used ‘live’ learning
environment which supports independence. They should be contemporary and reflect the current term in all cases. They must be
ready for the start of each new term and each new academic year.
All KS2 classrooms adopt the horseshoe philosophy with relevant aspects of KS1 & EYFS also utilising this.

School adopts a hessian, grass, soft lighting and ivy ‘natural feel’ to learning environments across schools. All
classroom displays should be hessian backed with a black border.

Each classroom must feature the following…

                      WRITING JOURNEY WITH GPS AREA (SUPPORT RESOURCES BELOW IN ‘ENGLISH’ BAY)
                            PHONICS SUPPORT (KS1, EYFS, OTHER YEAR GROUPS AS REQUIRED)
                          MATHEMATICS JOURNEY (SUPPORT RESOURCES BELOW IN MATHS BAY)
                                 A CENTRAL ISLAND (OR WORK STATIONS IN KS1/EYFS)
                                        REWARD WALL WITH TEAM POINTS
                                 READING BAY (WITH READING DOMAIN CHARACTERS)
                                    AN AREA HIGHLIGHTING THE CLASSIC NOVEL
                        LEARNING OBJECTIVE & MARKING BAY (EDITING STATION IN KS1/RECEPTION)
                                 ACCESSIBLE AND CLEARLY MARKED CLASS RESOURCES

* No pre-produced random posters, phrases or exemplars should be used.
* Doors follow a set design.
Knowledge Handbook 2021/2022 - A new Mayfield Primary School is emerging
LEARNING ENVIRONMENT/CLASSROOM LAYOUT EXAMPLES
LEARNING ENVIRONMENT – CORRIDORS
These celebrate outcomes from our curriculum and follow our vision: ‘Valuing Every Achievement’. Each display reflects a
subject within the curriculum and pieces are chosen from each year group to celebrate the personal progress made by the child
concerned from their own starting point. A short description is written by the relevant teacher to outline the progress in the
particular piece/s displayed. The display is the responsibility of the subject leader as these exemplify aspects of progress and
standards across the year groups and themes. These boards must be hessian backed with a black border.

LEARNING ENVIRONMENT – OTHER ROOMS

       THE SECRET GARDEN LIBRARY
   NURTURE ROOM
    Timetabled and non-timetabled work and meetings will take place in here with other professionals, families, staff and
    children. It is primarily a space for our children to spend time and access learning under the leadership of our Inclusion
    Manager. Lunches will take place each day for our specific groups of children. This is also a space for additional breakfasts
    for any child that may need it. There is a smaller temporary Nurture Room to support learning elsewhere in school.

   MEETING/TRAINING ROOM 1
    The central place for all CPD, resources and policies. Staff, Governor and Leadership Meetings will take place in here. This
    is a staff and governor only area. It means we now have a dedicated area for staff development. Investing in staff training is
    imperative for increasing capacity and sustaining performance in our school moving forward.

   MEETING ROOM 2 – MEETINGS & INTERVENTION
    For meetings with families/staff/other professionals or for children to work alongside adults. Please book out the room
    using the timetable located on the door.

   GYMNASIUM
    This is used primarily, but not exclusively, for lunches and PE. The gym is out of use from 11.25 until 1.30 approximately for
    lunchtimes.

   REFURBISHED CLOAKROOMS
    Each area of school now has a newly refurbished cloakroom area. New carpets, decoration, lighting and a brand new locker
    for each child.
Our lunchtime wider curriculum offer, ensuring that we are enabling and valuing every achievement by active, safe and
happy lunchtimes. This time of day is the central social event and must carry our vision. Let’s be active and feel good at
                this vital time of day. Our innovative play zones are ready for our children every day.

                               EYFS/YEAR 1/YEAR 2: 11.40 – 12.30
                               Dining Hall at 11.40 the Active Time
                                    YEARS 3 & 4: 12.00 – 12.45
                                  Active Time then Lunch Time
                                    YEARS 5 & 6: 12.30 – 1.15
                                  Active Time then Lunch Time
LUNCHES
Children can either bring a packed lunch from home or order a school lunch. There is a four option menu each day. School lunches
cost £2.35 per day or £11.75 per week and need to be paid in advance using Parent Pay.
LUNCHTIME: THE WIZARD OF OZ PICNIC PARK
Come and eat your packed lunch in our brand new outdoor area. Sit with friends and chat as you enjoy lunch outdoors in our mini
park based upon Dorothy Gale’s adventures in Oz. A rota will be used to provide our children with regular opportunities to use
this area. Take a look at our Emerald City, sit in the shadow of the Tin Man’s Cottage and follow the Yellow Brick Road.
Note: Due to the Covid-19 restrictions, we have so far restricted the use of this eating space to certain class bubbles. We hope to
widen this in due course.

MARKING – THE MARKING PODIUM
Marking simply must be ‘live’ and at the point of learning as much as possible. We
do not want marking that simply looks good and detailed on the surface but has no
impact. If we mark, reflect and review our work it must follow with action – either
by the individual child, the adult concerned or both together. We encourage our
children to be brave and not be afraid to make mistakes – but learning from them
is vital. Our marking encourages reflection, independence, resilience and must be
acted upon. Formative marking is a here and now experience – both spoken, and
where necessary, written. Our marking reflects our vision and puts it into
practice. Children will always receive House Point rewards in their books to
acknowledge personal success. Additional ‘Assessment Marking’ is used on
selected pieces for teacher purposes only. SEE APPENDIX E

                   MAYFIELD TOGETHER
                   Our aim is to: ‘Work together to raise the profile, reputation and funds for the growth of our new Mayfield
                   Primary School’. Come along – staff and families alike! We would love to see you. All welcome. Meetings take
                   place in school at early evening time. It is a great way to meet teachers on a more informal level and can be a
                  highly supportive tool for developing trust between home and school. See advertised meeting dates on our
                Weekly News Bulletins.

MEDICINES
Any medication needs to be prescribed by a doctor and a form filled in with the main office advising when/how the medicine should
be administered. This includes antihistamines. All allergy sufferers need to be highlighted with the office staff. This includes asthma
medication. Other non-prescribed medication can only be administered if it forms part of a child’s care plan. Care plans are
completed by a member of senior leadership. Please contact school if at any stage you feel you child needs additional
care/medication.
MOBILE PHONES
We do not encourage/want children to bring mobile phones to school, but understand that as a way of contacting children walking
to and from school you may wish them to do so. If mobile phones are brought onto the premises, by any pupil, they must be
switched off upon entry through the school gates and given to class teachers to keep until the end of the day. They must not be
switched back on until the child has left the premises. Please note: we cannot be held responsible for any loss or damages that
occur to phones brought into school. In certain circumstances, children may be asked to hand their phones to the school office
upon arrival. Children should not use smart watches in any circumstance. If this is found to be the case then staff will immediately
request the watch and then store this out of use and arrange for parents/carers to collect the item. Equally ‘fit bits’ should not be
worn at any time in the school day.
IN LINE WITH SAFEGUARDING OF OUR CHILDREN, STAFF AND OTHER FAMILIES, PARENTS USING PHONES TO TAKE PHOTOGRAPHS AND MAKE
RECORDINGS IS BANNED IN SCHOOL, OTHER THAN DURING OFFICIAL SCHOOL PERFORMANCES OR EVENTS I.E. SPORTS DAY, CHRISTMAS SHOWS.
ALL FILMING OR PHOTOGRAPHS TAKEN AT SUCH EVENTS MUST BE FOR THE FAMILIES OWN PERMANENT USE AND MEMORIES AND MUST NOT BE
PUBLISHED ON ANY FORM OF SOCIAL MEDIA THAT OTHERS HAVE ACCESS TO. THIS IS A VITAL SAFEGUARDING REQUIREMENT AND ANY BREACH
COULD RESULT IN DETAILS BEING PASSED TO THE RELEVANT AUTHORITIES. IT IS AT THE OWNER’S RISK – PLEASE ADHERE TO THESE
EXPECTATIONS. CONSIDER THE IMPORTANCE OF SAFEGUARDING EVERY CHILD AND HOW YOU WOULD FEEL IF YOU WERE ON THE RECEIVING
END OF ANY SUCH BREACH WHICH MAY PLACE YOUR CHILDREN IN DANGER. THANK YOU FOR SUPPORT.

MULTIPLICATION TABLES
Children work upon multiplication tables relevant to their year group as set out by the National Curriculum. Children are tested
upon these and use Times Tables Rock Stars to support their individual revision and to increase recall speed.

PHYSICAL EDUCATION TRACKSUIT DAYS
EARLY YEARS CLASS: WEDNESDAY & THURSDAY
YEAR 1 & 2: FRIDAY & MONDAY
YEAR 3: THURSDAY & FRIDAY
YEAR 4: THURSDAY & FRIDAY
YEAR 5: MONDAY & TUESDAY
YEAR 6: MONDAY & TUESDAY
* Swimming will be for year 6 and will take place in Spring Term or Summer Term dependent upon the class.

PRIDE OF MAYFIELD CORRIDOR
This is the central area of personal celebration in school. It houses our personal achievements. The new curriculum is also
celebrated and shared in this entrance area.

READING BOOK SYSTEMS
STAGE 1) LEARNING TO READ – APPLYING PHONIC KNOWLEDGE – LISTENING TO….
School uses Pearson’s Decodable Phonics Bug scheme as home readers. These run alongside the book banding system used across
school. Once children are ready to move away from the Phonics Bug scheme they will choose exclusively from the appropriate
book banded range. Pearson Phonics Bug Club is used within ‘English Units’ to support early reading development. Every child is
expected to have a ‘home reading’ book they will either be from Phonics Bug or afterwards from the book banded range.

STAGE 2) LEARNING FROM READING – TALK FOR READING – READING WITH…..
School promotes a ‘Top 10/20 Range’ in each classroom designed to extend vocabulary and prompt talk for reading. They are more
comprehension focused in nature. They are books which are designed for many children to be supported and challenged by an adult
or chosen with the teacher to provide appropriate challenge. These books should be used alongside the reading domain characters
and the associated prompt questions - usually at home with adults. We then ask families to update the reading record. A 15 minute
Neverending Stories time takes place each day in school – allowing teachers and support staff to listen to readers consistently
across the week. Whilst at Stage 1 children may also have an appropriate text from Stage 2 if this is deemed appropriate for the
child concerned.

READING CARNIVAL CORRIDOR & READING INITIATIVES
A celebration of our school reading exploits is housed on the corridor outside 4NT. This shares our class classic novels, a selection
of Top 10/20 titles, home reading time and the Talk for Reading Gang. The Top 10/20 is a range of books specially chosen by the
class teacher for stage 2 work. These are promoted in class throughout the year. The Talk for Reading Gang represent the reading
domains and support our stage 2 support for reading at home and in school. We have ready-made question prompts to help families
at home ask the questions relating to each domain. We rotate the focus character each half-term.
Never Ending Stories are our way of dedicating a daily session to reading in school. During this time staff will take the chance to
listen to readers 1-2-1 and record this in their Reading Record.
Class Novel Time is a regular daily activity where the class teacher reads a challenging classic text to the class. Picking out great
vocabulary at the same time and promoting further speech, discussion and modelling of expression and tone.
SEE APPENDIX D FOR THE TALK FOR READING GANG. SEE CLASS PAGES ON THE WEBSITE IN SEPTEMBER FOR AN
UP TO DATE TOP 10/20 LIST AND CLASSIC NOVEL TITLES.
REGISTRATION
Once children enter school from 8.45am onwards, they are encouraged to settle quickly, not linger in cloakrooms and complete
their morning/vocabulary work as set by the class teacher. Teachers should be well positioned to monitor arrival, welcome the
children and ensure children are independently on task. There is no need to ask each child for a response one-by-one whilst others
wait silently thereby creating loose waiting time – self-registration systems are used. This can be done whilst children are busy.
Similarly, afternoon registration should be a brief and unobtrusive whilst children are carrying out initial instructions or work.
9.10am is the cut off arrival during registration in the morning. 5 minutes after the commencement of registration is the cut off
arrival in the afternoon.

REPORTING TO PARENTS
Two Parent Evening events take place each year. One in each of Autumn and Spring Term. They will take place in the classroom of
each teacher. Each family will be allocated a 5 minute time slot. All relevant books should be available outside the classroom on
tables and chairs should be set up for families to wait at. It should be one 5 minute meeting per family. Unfortunately, we are unable
to meet individual parents of a particular child at separate time slots unless in exceptional circumstances. Teachers may request a
second senior member of staff be in attendance for specific meetings if this will assist with discussions. A timetable for each Parents
Evening should be posted on the class door prior to commencing.

At the end of the academic year, one written report will be completed by the class teacher for each child in their class. It is the sole
responsibility of the class teacher to report on all subjects and complete the form in full. The format for this report reflects our
core school intent.

REWARD SYSTEMS

                                    THREE CLEAR LEVELS
LEVEL 1: Team Points (Focus on the academic achievements) or Conduct Tokens (Focus on the social and moral achievements and
                                linked to Star Safe RESPECT Behaviour) Star of Safety Minutes

                                                              ************

                                            LEVEL 2: Nomination for a school level award.

                                                              ************

                                   LEVEL 3: Nomination for ‘Roll of Honour’ or school leader role.

                                                              ************

Children should receive team points or conduct tokens as rewards in the first instance. Team points should be recorded in class and
visible to all in the Reward Bay. Totals will be announced at Friday Assembly each week. Conduct tokens can be awarded for any
social or moral achievement and should be posted by staff or children in the Pride of Mayfield corridor boxes. Once each class
reaches their target level they can agree a class reward with their teacher. Star of Safety minutes are awarded weekly by our pupil
leaders to denote the level of safe and inclusive behaviour during our social times within school – effectively rewarding our British
Values in action.

Mayfield Merit Awards are given to two children each Friday. Headteacher’s Award is given to two children each Friday. Golden
Tickets are awarded to one child by each teaching assistant each week.

Roll of Honour is awarded to one pupil in each class every term at a special assembly. Children can be nominated for leadership
roles across school.

SANCTION SYSTEM

                                                               LEVEL 1: Teacher Reminder

                                            LEVEL 2: Verbal Warning (Initials recorded on white card.)

      -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 LEVEL 3: Yellow Card (Visit Headteacher or Other Senior Leader with Card – Chaperoned back to class by SLT afterwards. SLT
 can determine whether this level requires contact with home – this may be when a trend of regular yellow cards are appearing.)

  LEVEL 4: Red Card (Visit Headteacher or Other Senior Leader with Card – Chaperoned back to class by SLT afterwards. Letter
        sent home by SLT supported by phonecall/contact with home at the end of the school day from the class teacher.)

                                                                LEVEL 5: Behaviour Contract
   If, in the view of the SLT member dealing with the incident, the Red Card, and/or current level of need/behaviour, warrants a
                                 meeting with family members then this would be arranged by the class teacher.
              The Class Teacher and member of the SLT would then attend a meeting to agree a daily behaviour contract.
 The length of the initial contract would be determined by staff and will involve the session by session reporting of progress to the
                                                                    senior leader involved.
                                                       This contract will then sent home each day.
Contact with home will be required upon the end of the initial contract. A review meeting may be needed if staff deem it necessary.
                                This would be supported by the use of the contract renewal/contract end letter.
       -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 LEVEL 6: Exclusion Level (Not directly linked to the internal levels above and operates in line with LCC exclusion thresholds and
                                                                             criteria.)

Whilst they are hierarchical, it is not necessary to go through each level in order to escalate matters, although usually for class
based situations levels 1 to 4 would be a likely, logical step-by-step process. We must ensure that for extreme situations that we can
escalate to the appropriate level. The timescale for escalation is the call of the class teacher and SLT. Every day the system starts
again unless Level 5 is in use (Level 6 will depend upon the exclusion timescale). We must adopt the philosophy of every day is a
new beginning and a new opportunity with sanctions being instant as much as possible/reasonable and every achievement being
valued and not lost within a negative cycle.

If a child reaches Red Card level then they will start at Level 1 again. Meaning that they can attain more than one red card in a day.

This system is also to be used at lunchtimes with Mrs Lloyd determining whether a yellow or red card should be issued. If issued
then the child concerned would need to report to the Headteacher’s Office as soon as possible – i.e. not whilst eating their lunch or
not whilst the headteacher is leading a lunchtime zone. If this is the case the child should report to the office at the soonest point
after this and remain on the blue seats until the matter is dealt with. In the absence of the Headteacher, the Deputy Headteacher,
or other member of the SLT, may undertake this role.

No other systems should be used at any time of the school day.

If the senior leader involved is doubtful whether yellow or red card is the correct course of action then they may discuss this with
the class teacher. The senior leader will have the final say should there be any doubt as to the direction.

Any member of staff can use the system but non-teaching staff should refer their level of sanction to the person responsible for
leading learning if they deem a yellow or red card level is being recommended. It is their call on whether to deploy a reminder or
warning.

When teaching assistants or HLTA are covering classes/groups they are to make the call on whether a yellow or red card should be
issued.

 THE ATTITUDE TO LEARNING MATRIX (APPENDIX B) SHOULD BE USED AS THE BASIS FOR DECISION
                                MAKING IN ALL CASES.

SCHOOL PERFORMANCES – THE ABC THEATRE
All school performances, parental meetings, presentations and exhibitions take place in our ABC Theatre. Access during school
hours is via the playground entrance to the marked theatre doors only and outside of school hours access is also via the main car

Our brand new theatre is ready to go! A hub for our speaking, listening and performance work, it forms the centrepiece for our
new curriculum and exemplifies the unique offer we can make at Mayfield.
All shows, assemblies, music, dance & drama sessions and performances of any nature take place in this area. External access to the
ABC Theatre, from the playground, is from the double white doors in the Pride of Mayfield Corridor nearest the main office.
A high quality sound and lighting system has been permanently installed.

Swimming trunks (not shorts)/One piece swimming costume
Towel
Please note that the old school badge will not form part of the school uniform. It has been phased out of use in

** Children should have their natural hair colour. Hair dye is not permitted.
** Make up must not be worn - including nail varnish.
** Hair bands or clips must be small and discrete. They should not be ‘oversized and overtly colourful’.
** Please clearly name all items of your children’s clothing. We cannot take responsibility for missing items.

WE RECOMMEND AGAINST WEARING ANY JEWELLERY (STUD EARRINGS MAY BE WORN BUT WE ADVISE AGAINST THIS AND RESERVE THE RIGHT
TO ASK FOR THEM TO BE REMOVED IF THEY PRESENT A RISK TO A CHILD’S SAFETY DURING PARTICULAR ACTIVITIES). CHILDREN ARE NOT
PERMITTED TO WEAR EARRINGS FOR PE. IF IT IS YOUR CHILD’S PE DAY THEN PLEASE ENSURE THESE ARE TAKEN OUT AT HOME PRIOR TO
ATTENDING SCHOOL THAT DAY. EARRINGS ARE NOT PERMITTED DURING SWIMMING SESSIONS. WATCHES MAY BE WORN BUT ONLY WHEN THE
CHILDREN ARE ABLE TO USE THEM TO TELL THE TIME! SMART WATCHES ARE NOT PERMITTED IN SCHOOL AND WILL BE KEPT BY SCHOOL AND
RETURNED TO FAMILIES IF BROUGHT IN.

AFFORDABILITY & ACCESSIBILITY
Only three items contain the school badge. Tracksuit Hoodie; Tracksuit Bottoms; Sweatshirt or Cardigan. The rest
do not require any kind of branding. Thereby keeping costing of such items to a minimum.

We will be working exclusively in partnership with Top Marque for our branded items they are a highly experienced, long
established and trusted local provider for school uniforms. We feel it is important to work with local suppliers who have a shared
interest in the community and who have a face at the end of the transaction and remain around to assist with any concerns. They
have a vested interest in the quality of the service and product and we feel this is important. This is a major advantage over website
based companies. We also feel that their prices are competitive when considering the relevant quality of products we analysed.
They have worked with us throughout this process to create an offer that fits our needs. We have worked together to determine
the most durable and comfortable combination and are content that their products meet with our hopes and aspirations. We are
not working with any other supplier, including online companies, and any other supplier would not be endorsed by school
directly and school takes no responsibility for the quality of branded products, and the service, bought from other
suppliers. Please be aware of this. We therefore recommend using Top Marque for all branded uniform. We are also in the
process of placing our badge under Copyright to school. It is worth considering this information when deciding where to buy
branded items from.

Whilst we would recommend Top Marque for all quality non-branded items as well, you will still be able to collect items that do
not require the school badge from your usual supermarkets, Primark etc..
Top Marque’s contact details are: Shop - Top Marque 7A Park Road, St Annes Town Centre, FY8 1QX 01253 725246

In order to assist with accessibility we will be introducing a Uniform Pop-Up Shop to school.
The shop will contain changing rooms if required. From September, the shop will have a more permanent setting and weekly
opening times for continued purchase and access to school uniform.
It is our hope that we can develop our range of branded items to book bags, water bottles etc… in due course.
You will access the shop from the playground gates as usual. SO EFFECTIVELY WE ARE BRINGING THE SHOP TO YOU.
Full details of shop site and opening times will be shared in due course.

 ** If families are finding difficulty with maintaining or adhering to any part of the school uniform due to costs then feel free to contact school
confidentially and ask to speak with Mrs Carlton (our Family Learning Mentor) who may be able to help. School will help as much as possible so
                                    as to ensure that cost does not become a barrier to following uniform policy. **
APPENDIX A

                          HOME/SCHOOL AGREEMENT & CODE OF CONDUCT

It is assumed that anyone matching either of these roles within the school will follow these expectations and agree to accept them
