Ofsted - Sept 2022: 'Pupils love to be part of this friendly and welcoming school. They described their teachers as kind, fun and helpful. Warm relationships between staff and pupils are rooted in the school's values. All are treated with kindness and respect.'

Welcome to Chapel End Infant School & Early Years Centre!

At Chapel End we have a wonderful environment into which we welcome your child for the start of their education.  We aim for the time your child spends with us to be happy and successful and provide a firm foundation on which they can build for the future.  In order to achieve this we firmly believe that home and school should work together and we look forward to a positive and supportive relationship with you – the parents and carers.

Your child will be taught by highly committed teachers and early years practitioners who encourage a high standard of achievement and individual development in a secure and supportive atmosphere.  Our most recent OFSTED (September 2022) reported 'the curriculum is ambitious. Outdoor learning is well developed. Leaders are determined that all pupils will succeed. Pupils enjoy their lessons and achieve well. This includes pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND).'

Our nursery provides part-time education nursery places and full-time day-care places for 2 , 3 and 4 year olds. 

If you are unable to find the information that you are looking for on our website please do not hesitate to contact the school directly.

    Safeguarding Incident
    Dear Parents/Carers, I am writing, further to the communication shared with parents yesterday. I wanted to take this opportunity to share with you more details and to reassure you of our next steps. The alleged incident did not take place at the infant school and was not on our premises, nor was it on the boundary of our premises. The alleged indecency was not seen by any pupils or staff as it was nearby, but beyond the visual range from anywhere within the school premises. Staff responded to a disturbance that was happening further along the street. Following a concerning report from a member of the public, the staff team took precautionary measures to ensure children remained unaffected by the situation. This is our standard procedure in any event where we believe there may be a risk to the children from outside of school. Staff made a report to the police, who responded promptly. As a result of this alleged incident, we are considering the use of screening for the playground fences as a further precautionary measure and a few parents have also suggested this to school staff. It is important to note that there are advantages and disadvantages to taking this approach and therefore this will be deliberated with Senior Leaders and will be raised with school governors at our next meeting before a decision is made. I will, of course, let you know the outcome of this discussion and the reasons for our decision. I hope that this communication will reassure you of the schools actions as a result of this situation and of our next steps in reviewing what further action may be helpful. I will be available from 3pm today at the school office if any parents wish to drop in to share their views or discuss this further. I appreciate this may be short notice for some people who may want to do so, but please know that you can always speak to any school leaders about this at the beginning or end of the school day, at reading morning or at our Black History Celebration next week. Thank you for your support as always, it is much appreciated. Janice Chaplin Headteacher
