iPad Parent Contribution Scheme 

At XP Trust:

• We support and challenge students to be leaders of their own learning
• We pull down the barriers to learning, ensuring social equity
• We encourage creativity; respectful, individual expression

Our approach to technology mirrors this, and therefore, from September 2021:

• At primary schools in Years 3-6, we are launching our iPad parent contribution scheme to enable your child to access the best technology in their classroom and at home.
• In school years below this, iPads will be made available to your children.

This is a contribution scheme and purely optional. Your Crew leader will speak to you directly about the scheme.

On Thursday we will be having our Summer Fun Day. We’ve got bouncy castles, penalty shoot out and lots of fun games. We’ve also got an ice cream van coming!

The day will be non uniform too.

We will be selling raffle tickets on Tuesday and Wednesday Morning in reception. 20p per strip or 3 strips for 50p. Which will be drawn by the children on Monday 12th.

Welcome to the Crew Henry Ernest Elmer Congratulations to Mrs Elmer and her partner.

See what the XP Trust have been up to this week. As always, it’s a pleasure to see our fab CPS pupils featured in the montage.

This week in the trust

As we are unable to take the kids to Cleethorpes like we originally planned, next week we’re treating them to a chip shop lunch (see days per year group below), they have already chosen what they would and the order has been placed. There will be no charge for this. If your child has packed lunch you do not need to send them with one. 

Tuesday 29th June – EYFS
Wednesday 30th June – Year 3 & 4
Thursday 1st July – Year 5 & 6 Friday 2nd July – Year 1 & 2

Thanks CS Crew

Dear Parents and Carers, 

As you are all aware Miss Laing will be taking maternity leave from her role as Headteacher at Carcroft School. In her absence I will become the Acting Heateacher for the School, combining the role with my role as Executive Principal for the XP Trust. 

For those of you who don’t know me, let me introduce myself. I am Neil Butler and this will be my fourth Headship. I have been a Head for over 15 years, leading schools in Hessle, Thorne and Intake. My teaching career also began at Askern Spa Junior School. As some may know my role within the XP Trust is to lead all the Headteachers and Principles in their roles in their schools. 

Next year will be an exciting one; finally officially joining the Trust and developing further the great work on Crew, Expedition and Beautiful Work. I have been really impressed this year with the improvement in the children’s behaviours and attitudes to learning. The teachers have done a great job developing the habits of work and learning. Children really do work hard, get smart and are kind. 

Next year we hope to welcome you back into school, to see your children’s great work and share their learning journeys. We have all been really frustrated with the government’s covid restrictions, although we totally understand why and support the measures, schools aren’t the same without positive parental interactions. 

I will write again nearer the end of term to share our plans for the new academic year.

I hope your children enjoy the activities that the staff have planned for the children over the coming month.

Thanks for your continued support

Neil Butler
