  Anti-bullying Week

  We have been delighted with the amount of effort that has gone into this year's anti bullying competition! It was a very difficult decision choosing a winner out of the 190 enteries. Every child who entered received a blue anti-bullying wrist band and will have learnt some very valuable advice.
  
  Congratulations to Aiysha 5A who came 1st place!
  In 2nd place was Mahfuza  6A
  And 3rd Place was Adil 2S
  Some absolutely brilliant posters and advice was produced, very well done!
  
  
  
   
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  

  

• Penalty Notices at Stoneyholme

  Fri 08 Nov 2013

   

  Penalty Notices at Stoneyholme
  As of Tuesday 5th November our school will be able to issue Penalty Notices to parents/carers who are able, but unwilling to ensure their child's school attendance. This has taken place due to poor attendance and punctuality being a major issue at Stoneyholme. The majority of school's across Burnley are already actively using Penalty Notices, and it is evident from their attendance rates that it is working.
   
  All children have taken a letter home on Friday 8th November to their parents explaining all about the Notices and how they work. If you would like to read our local authorities handout regarding Penalty Notices please see attached document to this page.
  
  At Stoneyholme our target attendance rate is 97%, anything falling below that we monitor alongside as punctuality. We provide alot of support for our families in school and are working with outside agencies like the Chai centre, school nurse, health visitors and PAST (Pupil Attendance Support Team) to help and support our familes in the best way we possibly can.
  
  If you have any further queries please do not hesitate to get in contact with the school.
