Assembly and Collective Worship
On a Wednesday morning there is a collective assembly for all pupils who are able to access it in person in the hall. For pupils unable to access this assembly, a virtual sensory assembly is led by each class teacher in an appropriate way for that class and individuals’ learning needs.
Assemblies are broadly Christian in nature, whilst reflecting and celebrating multi-faith traditions of the school. They also address many personal , social, health, world issues and British values. There is a fixed timetable which addresses key events during the year, yet is reactive to current affairs and topical issues.
Every Friday, a whole school Achievement Assembly is held virtually to share and celebrate pupils and staff achievements. This is usually presented by the Headteacher. On other days, each class has an individual ‘Good Morning’ routine which draws the class together .
