The children are all now back to weekly swimming lessons in our very own pool. The National curriculum states that all children should be able to swim at least 25 meters by the end of primary school.
Sadly we have regular children who forget their kit. Previously the school has then loaned a kit and then staff members have taken the kit home to wash. In future if your child does not have a kit they will have to sit and watch and a text will be sent home.
It is a parents responsibility to ensure their child is prepared for school every day.
Teacher2Parents texting service. When the school sends text messages it will no longer say from Barley Close Primary school but it will come from a mobile number.
In order to help you streamline your text messages from Barley Close Primary please download the T2P app from the app store using the instructions:
search for ‘Teachers2Parents’ in App Store or Playstore or you click on the following link:
Teachers2Parents App: https://login.eduspot.co.uk/public/portal/open_app_store.html.nc
It will then ask parents to put their mobile number in and send them a confirmation code
This will then give you access to the App
