Chapel Allerton Primary is committed to safeguarding and promoting
the wellbeing of all children, and expect our staff and volunteers
to share this commitment. We work alongside other agencies
to support children if appropriate. If you have any safeguarding
concerns please speak to the Headteacher.
Safeguarding
In addition to specialist music teaching,
music features regularly throughout the
curriculum. Class assemblies allow children
the chance to perform and entertain!
Music
All pupils take part in a wide variety of sporting activities including gymnastics, dance and games, with swimming for pupils
in Year 4. We have specialist sports teachers from TSC Sports and Dance Coaching whose skills we supplement by inviting
outside sporting organisations to offer coaching to our children; this includes cricket, rugby, basketball, football, tennis and
dance tuition. All pupils have a minimum of two hour’s physical education each week. The school has two playgrounds, a
large indoor hall, smaller hall and dining hall. Sports clubs also run four nights each week. We share the use of the playing
fields next to Stainbeck Police Station with St Matthew’s School.

In accordance with legal requirements our RE is broadly Christian in character whilst taking into account the teaching and
practices of other principal religions. We believe that CollectiveWorship provides our school with opportunities to reflect on
the aims of the school and celebrate the worth and values of the school community andmakes a significant contribution to
the pupils’ spiritual, moral, social and cultural development.
Collective Worship

Child Care
It is very important for teachers to
know about any health or medical
problems your childmay have. All
information is confidential and used
only to ensure your child’s health and
safety in school. Please let the School
Office know if you have any concerns
about your child’s health.
Medical Matters
Asthma inhalers will be kept in the classroom for children who require them to use during school hours. No other
medicines are allowed in the classroom for safety reasons.
Please note school staff cannot administer medicines such as Calpol or antibiotics. If a child needs antibiotics four times a
day we suggest a parent/carer comes to school during lunchtime. Parents are asked to arrange for all other medication
to be administered at home. If your child has any specific medical requirements, it is essential you inform the Headteacher
in writing.
