Dear Parents/Carers,
The week has been incredibly full with the continuous display of our children showing what caring and thoughtful beings they are.
We say goodbye to a number of children who will be starting Primary School in January and of course wish them and their families all the very best in the next stage of their educational career.
On behalf of all the staff and Governors we wish you all a very happy and restful break.
As Nelson Mandela promoted: we trust 2014 will be a year for peace and justice for all. 
Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year.

As many parents and carers will know the Right Honourable Rushanara Ali M.P. for Bethnal Green and Bow visited Rachel Keeling Nursery School today. Rushanara is the Shadow Minister responsible for Education and visited the school to partly share in our celebrations of our recent Ofsted inspection, as well as discuss future education policy. In our discussion with Rushanara,  we highlighted the following points as being particularly key to moving the quality of education forward: 
  • Effective leadership of Head Teachers
  • Well qualified and well trained teachers
  • Trained and qualified support staff
  • High expectations
  • A focus on the dispositions of learning; (including following children's interests) as well as skills, knowledge and concepts
  • A focus on research
  • Effective partnership between parents and the school
  • Collective shared ownership of the school's objectives by children, staff, parents and governors
My huge thanks to all the Governors who supported this important visit as well as baking a number of truly scrumptious cakes!
