Our Lady of Mount Carmel Catholic Primary School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children.

All staff, governors, external coaches and volunteers are fully aware of the School’s safeguarding policies and share this commitment.

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people. We expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. Our school is a safe place for children, where our responsibilities for safeguarding children are taken seriously.

Our policies and agreed practices for child protection, health and safety, behaviour management, attendance and looked after children all comply with the recommendations for safeguarding children at school. We have trained designated safeguarding leaders with responsibility for child safeguarding at the school.

There is a strong anti-bullying ethos evident throughout the school. We teach our children how to recognise bullying, how to keep themselves safe from bullying behaviour and how to report it.

We are immensely proud of our wonderful children, parents and staff. Look what we have achieved together!

Dear Parents and Carers,

As we reach the end of another wonderful school year, I wanted to take a moment to say a heartfelt thank you to each and every one of you for your continued support throughout the year.

When I look back over the past twelve months, there is so much to celebrate. We have witnessed fantastic sporting achievements, impressive academic successes, and countless moments of personal growth. More importantly, we have made wonderful memories together as a school family. From special events and celebrations to everyday moments of learning and laughter, our children have continued to make us proud.

Our school is much more than a place of learning; it is a community, and I feel incredibly fortunate to be part of such a fabulous one. The support, encouragement and kindness shown by our families help to make OLMC the special place that it is.

A huge thank you must go to the Friends of Our Lady of Mount Carmel. Their contribution to school life is simply incredible. Not only do they work tirelessly to raise valuable funds that benefit all of our children, but they also bring so much joy, fun and community spirit to our school. We are truly grateful for everything they do.

I would also like to thank our wonderful staff. Their dedication, care and commitment to the children never go unnoticed. They work incredibly hard every day to ensure that every child feels valued, supported and challenged to be the very best they can be. I am privileged to work alongside such a talented and caring team.

On a personal note, I would like to thank you for the support you have shown me during my second year as Headteacher. Leading OLMC is a privilege that I never take for granted, and being part of such a wonderful school family means so much to me. Your kindness, encouragement and trust are greatly appreciated, and I look forward to continuing our journey together in the years ahead.

As we say goodbye for the summer, we also say a special farewell to our Year 6 children. They have been a truly wonderful year group and exceptional ambassadors for our school. They have represented OLMC with pride, kindness and determination, and we are incredibly proud of all they have achieved. We wish them every success and happiness as they begin the next exciting chapter of their education. They will always remain part of the OLMC family.

I hope that the summer holidays provide everyone with an opportunity to rest, relax and enjoy precious family time together. Please stay safe, make lots of happy memories, and take time to recharge over the six-week break.

We look forward to welcoming you all back in September, refreshed and ready for another exciting year.

With sincere thanks and best wishes,

Mrs Philippa Martin
