We’re excited to welcome all our pupils back on Tuesday morning for a new term full of learning and growth. Thank you to all parents and carers for your continued support—we look forward to working together to make this term successful and enjoyable for everyone!

As you will be aware Mr Wiggett and Mrs Smith will be responsible for the leadership and management of the school from January 2026 in a acting head teacher / assistant head teacher role - alongside the other members of the school's Senior Leadership Team.

They will will over the next term, receive leadership and management support from an experienced head teacher within our trust - Mrs Esther Parsons - who is head teacher of Stonydelph Primary School.

Mrs Parsons will be familiar to many of you as she was deputy head teacher at Millfield prior to Mr Wiggett before she took on her role at Stonydelph.

Interviews for the post of permanent head teacher at Millfield are scheduled for mid January.

Please be on time for school!

We are noticing an increasing number of pupils arriving late for school.

Remember our school gate opens at 8.40am for pupils to come in and go to classrooms ready to start their learning. This gate is closed promptly at 8.55am.

Arriving after this time means that pupils miss vital learning time.

This missed time adds up - if a pupil is five minutes late every day that is twenty five minutes a week of missed learning - imagine how this adds up over a school year.

So please be on time for school!
