It has been lovely to speak to so many of our new Year 7 parents and to learn more about how we can best support the students both to enjoy and progress at Turves Green Boys’ School. We have had a busy half term launching all of our Form Time Interventions and it has been lovely to see everyone coming down each morning to attend their small group support session. So far, we have seen excellent attendance and some really Valuable Contributions in our sessions, which range from ‘Numeracy Support’ and ‘Read to Succeed’, to ‘Handwriting Workshops’ and ‘Zones of Regulation’. Well done to everyone who has taken part so far, and if you have not yet been involved in one of the additional support sessions and would like to take part, please don’t hesitate to come and see me to enquire about a place for next term!
We are also extremely lucky to be able to offer extra support for our parents too. As part of our continued efforts to ensure a strong home-school partnership, I am delighted to share details of our first SEND coffee morning of this academic year, which will be taking place on Thursday 28th November 2024. This informal session will provide an opportunity to meet with me; share any concerns or queries and discuss with the SEND department any further adaptations we could put in place for our students. If you would like to learn more about the Graduated Approach and the SEND Department at Turves Green Boys’ School, you are very welcome to attend the session from 9.30am – 11am on 28th November.
Finally, I am pleased to be able to share that the Birmingham Parent Carer Forum (BPCF) have recently launched its new website. BPCF have asked us to share this with parents:
Wishing you all a restful half term and I look forward to meeting up with more of you in the run up to Christmas.
