Our Girls Football Team were absolutely brilliant last Wednesday evening! They played at Goals and there was an outstanding effort from Rahima, our top goal scorer! Well done to Rimple and the team for an amazing performance!

This week there has been many things going on at Abbey. Children are progressing and that’s what we want! Our Attendance levels are rising higher and higher! We have both had an amazing experience this week as headteacher and deputy. We thank all the staff, children and parents for supporting us throughout our journey!

Thank You…

Thought for the week: “When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life.  When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up.  I wrote down ‘happy’.  They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life.”

Please don’t forget to return your Parents’ Evening letters – they are taking place on Tuesday 8^th and Wednesday 9^th April.

I am delighted to be able to let you know that the Secretary of State for Education (via the National College for Teaching & Leadership) has accepted our application to become a teaching school from September 2014. We are the first of Leicester’s 80 primary schools to be given this important designation.  Teaching schools give outstanding schools across the country (like Abbey Primary) a leading role in the training and professional development of teachers, support staff and headteachers, as well as contributing to the raising of standards through school-to-school support. This work will benefit our own staff and pupils as well as those in  schools across the city. Thanks to all pupils, staff, parents and governors for their support in making Abbey the amazing school it is today.
