The peer mediators are also on duty every day to sort out any issues that may occur. The children that are school ambassadors, playleaders and peer mediators have all undertaken relevant training.
School library: The school library is available at various times for the children to exchange their books or sit and read.
The children from Stillness Infant School transfer internally to the Junior School at the end of Y2. They will make a visit with their class teacher to look around and familiarise themselves with the junior school. The Y2 and Y3 teachers then meet to discuss the children’s learning and development prior to September. This ensures a smooth transition from infant to junior school. The parents and carers of the Y2 children will meet the headteacher and leadership team in the summer term.

All admissions are now carried out by the LA, but the headteacher will always meet prospective parents to discuss administrative arrangements and to answer any questions prior to their attendance at the school.
