Message From The Acting Head of Blakeney Church of England Primary School

The new term started at Blakeney with warm thanks for the admirable work of the outgoing acting head, Mrs Sue Sweet, and a firm commitment from me to ensure that the school's valued ethos and philosophy continue to thrive under my leadership.

I am looking forward to the challenge of enhancing the learning opportunities of the children. One of the things we need to do is to build a stronger emphasis on learning across the partnership and with other schools.

To emphasise the importance Blakeney attaches to its role as a church school, plans are being prepared to create a prayer space on the premises. This is described as a dedicated place in the school where a focus on prayer can be centred. Its exact form has still to be decided.

The idea is being developed with the help of Simon Fenn, a children, youth and family worker based with the Church of England Holt Deanery, who regularly visits the school to support its assemblies and develop the part played by the children in this area of school life.
