Heaton news - WB 11th Sept

Date: 14th Sep 2023 @ 9:41pm

It's been great to welcome new staff members to our team for our new academic year.

Firstly we introduce our new team of Care Assistants. We have a team of 7 staff who assist students in their personal care, therapies routines whilst also assisting with tasks such as administering medication. Here are a few of them who let me take their picture today!!

We are also pleased to have Amanda Wright as Student Support Assistant. Amanda has been working as a TA at the school  for many years now and is excited to getting 'stuck in' to her new role. Amanda works closely with staff and students throughout the school to ensure that appropriate support is given for students to manage their behaviours effectively. the new Student support room allows students access to an additional 'quiet' space within school. We look forward to sharing how this new venture develops in the future!

Volunteers

We are always looking for Volunteers who would be willing to give some of their time to work at Heaton School. If this may be of interest to yourself or friends and family members please get in touch with Jonathan Curtis at jonathan.curtis@heaton.stockport.sch.uk. 

Calling all Minibus Drivers!

A key part of our school curriculum entails going out in the community. Do you posess a full driving licence that enables you to drive a large 16 seater minibus? Are you able/ willing to volunteer some of your time to drive students / groups in and around our community? If so, we would be very keen to talk to you. 

PTA - An initial PTA meeting had been planned for this coming Tuesday (19th September). However, this has been postponed and a new date will be announced soon. For new parents who may be keen to get involved please get in touch with us and we will make sure you know more about how you can get involved.

Have a great weekend everyone!
