Useful Things to Know

Office Hours

Visiting hours for the school office are between 8am – 9.30am and 2.30pm – 3.45pm each day. You will not be able to access the office outside of these hours, unless you are collecting your child for an appointment.

However, you may still call (020 8340 3173) or email (admin@coleridgeprimary.net) at any time of day.

Parent Staff Association

Our school Parent Staff Association is called Coleridge Families. They run several fundraising and social events throughout the year and are always looking for parents to get involved. Please check out their website to find out more.

Absences

If your child is going to be absent from school for any reason, please leave a message with the office, either by calling 020 8340 3173  or by emailing absences@coleridgeprimary.net, explaining why they will not be in. This should be done before 9am when the school registers are completed.

*** Please see the information above if you suspect your child, or another member of your household, has Coronavirus.

Class Reps

Each class has several ‘Class Reps’. These are parents that provide a really useful link between school and other parents in the class, and often help pass on important information and arrange social gatherings. If you are interested in becoming a class rep, please contact Coleridge Families.

School Lunches

For Reception and Years 1 and 2, school meals are free. For Years 3 to 6, the cost of lunch is £2.80 per day and we ask parents to pay online, weekly or half termly in advance. Special diets can be catered for, and drinking water is always available. Children may bring their own packed lunch from home, which should be brought in a suitable container and should not include chocolate bars, sweets or canned drinks.

If children change from packed lunch to school dinners, or vice versa, we ask that parents inform the school office.

If you are in receipt of certain state benefits, work in the armed services, or have adopted a child from care, then you may qualify for the Pupil Premium Grant. The Pupil Premium Grant entitles your child to free school meals, discounts on school events and priority for a number of extra-curricular clubs. It also provides the school with additional money which we use to offer curriculum support and enrichment opportunities for our children. Some of the benefits currently on offer are:

  • Priority access to some before and after-school clubs, such as Go-Kart Club and Science Club.
  • Discounts on school trips.
  • Free or discounted entry to Coleridge Families events, such as the Fireworks display in November and the Summer Fair in June.
  • Curriculum enrichment days, such as the Science Day and the Highgate Maths Masterclasses.
  • Free or discounted books and DVDs (subject to availability).

You can find out if your child is eligible for this grant by using this Free School Meal Eligibility Checker on our website. It only takes a few minutes to complete.

Raising Concerns

If you have any concerns about your child, your first point of contact should always be the class teacher. You can email the school office and they will set up a meeting for you, either face to face or over the phone. It is always helpful if you provide a brief outline of what your concern is about before the meeting.

If you feel your concern has not been dealt with in a satisfactory way, you should contact your year team leader. Where necessary, they may refer the issue to either the school SEND team or a member of the Senior Leadership.

Attendance and Punctuality

It is hugely important that children attend school every day and that they always arrive on time.

Whilst we recognise that some absences are necessary, please be aware that prolonged or regular time off school can have a detrimental effect on your child’s education and wellbeing. If we become concerned about your child’s attendance, a member of the Senior Leadership Team may get in touch to discuss the matter further.

The school day starts at 9:00am; by this time, children should be sitting at their desks or in their carpet spaces, ready to start the day. For this reason, children should arrive 5 to 10 minutes before this time in order to hang-up coats and put their packed lunches away.

Arriving late to school can be disorientating and embarrassing for children. They can miss important information about the day ahead and, if they are more than 5 minutes late, will very likely miss key learning points too. Getting your child into school on time also teaches them good habits around time management and self-organisation.

If you are experiencing specific difficulties in trying to get your child into school, then please get in touch by e-mailing or calling the school office. We may be able to offer additional support or advice.

Volunteering in School

We are always delighted when parents and carers volunteer their time in school. You can do this in a number of ways:

  • Read with children on a one-to-one basis;
  • Help in art lessons;
  • Provide lunchtime supervision;
  • Run booster groups (some previous experience is required for this);
  • Work in one of our school libraries;
  • Help maintain some of our communal areas, such as the allotment or Leavers’ garden.

Please note that parents will not support in their own child’s class, as we have found this provides a better experience for everyone involved.

If you are interested in volunteering in some capacity, please email Louise Foulkes (lafoulkes@coleridgeprimary.net)

School Trips

At the beginning of each year, parents are asked to make a donation of £30 to the year group trip fund. Once teachers know how much is in their budget, they book trips up for the year ahead. Any money left over at the end of the year, is rolled over into the following year’s budget.

Parents will be notified of any trips via email; permission for trips is assumed unless parents inform us otherwise.

Teachers will often ask for parent volunteers on school trips. They can usually accommodate all offers of help, but on some occasions, where numbers are restricted, teachers may have to allocate spaces in a fair and diplomatic way. Please be aware that parents may also be asked to pay for their own travel and/or entry on some outings.

Before and After School

The school runs, as well as hosts, a variety of school clubs, both before and after school. Some of these clubs are invite only, others are open to all.

There are several private clubs that use the school grounds which parents can book their child in to. Details about these clubs can be found here. Please note that these clubs are not booked through the school; please use the contact details provided on this webpage.

Fair Play offer before and after school care exclusively for Coleridge children in one of three locations near the school. For more information, please contact Sarah Miller on 07843 694200.

  • Appropriate outdoor clothing. We open our garden every day so please dress your child appropriately for the weather. Remember to bring a raincoat if it’s raining!

Important Information

  • If your child has any special medical needs, medicine they need to take at school, or a condition we need to be aware of, please complete the Health Care form. These can be found here on the school website. These should be returned to the school office, either by email or by dropping off a paper copy.
  • All communication from the school happens over email, so please ensure the school has up-to-date contact information for you. If you find that you are not receiving school correspondence, please get in touch with the office.

Drop off and Pick up
  • Children joining Coleridge in Reception do so in a staggered intake; you will have already been emailed about your child’s own start date and time. We understand that this can be difficult for parents to manage, but in our experience, this is the best way to help the children settle into school and for us to get to know them and you quickly.
  • Children in RO and RB should use the Waverley Gate for pick up and drop off.
  • Children in RR and RP should use the Main Gate East on Crouch End Hill.
  • Gates will be open from 8.45am and classrooms doors will unlock at 8.50am. Parents should ensure their child is dropped off before 9am. If your child arrives after this time, they should report to the school office.
  • At the end of the school day, gates will open again at 2.55pm, ready for lessons to finish at 3.10pm. Please be assured that your child will only be released from the classroom once their teacher has seen that their parent or carer has arrived. For this reason, if your usual pick up arrangements have changed, you will need to notify the teacher in the morning or email the school office.
What to bring
  • A change of clothes, just in case. These can be brought in on their first day and left on your child’s pegs.
  • A water bottle (with their name on). This should be taken home and washed on a regular basis.
  • Each child is assigned a ‘reading day’, which is when their class teacher will change the book/s that they should be reading at home. Please ensure your child has this book in school on the appropriate day.
Important Information
  • If you are new to the school, please make sure you read the information on our ‘New Parents‘ webpage.
  • It is a good idea to label all items of clothing, including coats. They are much more likely to be returned to you again if they are misplaced.
  • Your child should wear comfortable clothes that, where possible, they are able to take on and off independently (including shoes). Please note that the children have free access to messy resources, including paint and mud, so please bear this in mind when they are getting dressed in the morning!
  • All children are provided with a fruit snack and receive a free school meal for lunch. Please keep us informed of any dietary requirements for your child. Children are also able to bring in their own packed lunch if they prefer.
  • Children under 5 are entitled to free milk each day in school. Once your child has turned 5, you have the option to order and pay for milk for your child using this website. This will be given to your child at some point during the morning.
  • If your child has any special medical needs, medicine they need to take at school, or a condition we need to be aware of, you will need to complete the Health Care form. These can be found here on the school website. These should be returned to the school office, either by email or by dropping off a paper copy.
