Beverley Bailey, Family Welfare Officer, invited Laura Payne from Walsall Reflexions Mental Health Support Teams (MHSTs) into our school to discuss the possibility of Elmwood School applying for the ‘Sandwell Well-being Charter Mark’. The award was in recognition of the school’s commitment to and evidence of good practice in creating a school that promotes the emotional and mental health and well-being of pupils, staff and parents. Laura stated that as an EPS, it had been fantastic to work with the school through the process and hear of the great work taking place. The Charter Mark status is in place for 3 years, or to the change of Head Teacher. At either of these points in time, a review will take place to support future developments and to ensure standards and progress have been maintained across all areas. If evidence of this is provided, the Charter Mark status will be maintained for a further 3 years and in the review meeting a new action plan will be developed with you A presentation of the award took place on the last day of term and the certificate is now proudly on display in reception.   A big thank you to everyone who helped to support the above.  Final Report – June 2024

Following my Year 11 examination timetable and information letter on 15th April 2024, I am pleased to release pupils personalised timetable as part of the school’s values of “Care for Others” which will commence w/b 3rd June to w/e 28th June 2024. Pupils have had this timetable released to them this morning and are looking forward to supporting as a Teaching Assistant, when they are not completing coursework, preparing for exams or sitting their exams. It is also a great opportunity for them to plan their own time as they will be progressing to a 3 day week from September 2024. The experiences in school will also be recorded as a work experience placement and in turn a reference from a colleague from Elmwood School. If your child receives transport this will continue throughout the month of June, but they are just expected to access this on their allocated days. If you have any questions please contact me next week in preparation of the launch after half term.
