On Wednesday 22 and Thursday 23 September we are holding some short, online briefing meetings for parents in each year group. he meetings will take place at 4.15pm.
The meetings will be an opportunity for the teaching staff to share with you some aspects of the curriculum, as well as some practical things to help us through the year. There will also be the opportunity to ask questions. The senior leadership team will also be represented at each meeting. We realise that there is no good time for all parents to be available for meetings, so we will record each one and share the links to the recordings with you. If you have children in more than one class, you may have a 'clash'. Please choose which meeting to go to and you can catch up with a recording of the other. Some of the content will be similar in each briefing. The meeting days (all meetings start at 4.15pm) are as follows: Wednesday: Year 6, Year 3, Year 1 and Reception Thursday: Year 5, Year 4, Year 2 and Nursery If you are unable to attend the meeting but have a question after watching the recording, please do not hesitate to contact us. The links for the meetings are as follow (click to follow the link): Nursery Reception Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 Year 5 Year 6 Please let us know if you have any questions. If your child is eligible for ‘free school meals’ and you register them for this before the end of September, we’ll receive extra funding called ‘pupil premium’.

Is my child eligible for free school meals? Your child may be able to get free school meals if you get any of the following:
Universal infant free school meals Currently, pupils in reception, year 1 and year 2 are entitled to a free school meal thanks to a different government funding scheme known as universal infant free school meals (UIFSM). You shouldn’t confuse UIFSM with free schools meals and the pupil premium. If your child is in reception, year 1 or year 2 and is eligible for free school meals according to the benefits-related criteria above, you should still register because we’ll receive the extra pupil premium funding and you will receive the additional support. Does my child have to eat the free school meals? No. Pupils who are registered for free school meals don’t have to eat them. If you’re eligible but you want your child to have packed lunches you should still register because the school will receive the funding which can support your child in other ways and you will receive the additional support. How do I register? You only need to register once at the school. To register, please visit https://pps.lgfl.org.uk/ and follow the instructions to check eligibility. If you prefer, we can run a check on your behalf, as long as you can provide the following information. Send an email with the information and we’ll check for you:
More information If you would like any more information, please do get in touch. We are very happy to answer any questions. Deadline The government will check the number of eligible children at Pinner Park on 7 October. The number of eligible children on that day will set our funding for the next financial year. Therefore, we are asking for any checks to be made before the end of September. If you apply after the deadline we won't receive the funding until 2023. If your child is already eligible, you do not need to check again. It only takes a few moments to check. If you think that your child may be eligible please do check.
