Dear Parent/Carer,

 

I am writing to let you know about a delay to this year's Key Stage 2 (KS2) test results, which affects all schools nationally. Schools were due to receive results on 7 July 2026.

 

However, Pearson Education Limited, the provider responsible for administering, marking, and returning Key Stage 2 results to schools has informed the Department for Education of a delay affecting the national system used to make results available to schools. Results will now be available on 16 July 2026. We know this is frustrating, and we share that feeling. However, it won't get in the way of celebrating everything your child has achieved during their time at South View. Importantly, the delay is not related to the quality of the tests or the accuracy of pupils' results.

 

Test papers have been marked in line with usual processes. This will not impact your child’s transition to secondary school and no action is required from parents or pupils. We will share results with you as quickly as possible after we receive them on 16 July.

 

Thank you for your patience and understanding. If you have any questions, please contact the school office.

 

Yours sincerely,

Mrs Sheila Pape Executive Headteacher

Dear Parents

 

The rehearsals for the Year 6 production of ‘Pirates of the Curry Bean’ are well underway and all the children are working hard at learning their songs and lines. There will be a performance of the production on Tuesday 14th July at 6pm and all children are expected to attend as every child has an important part in the production.

 

There will be no charge for coming to see the performance, but due to fire regulations we will need to distribute tickets.

It is up to two tickets per family but please do indicate if you would like any extras and we can allocate any left over seats accordingly.

Year 4 Music Concert

Date - Friday 26^th June 2026

Time – 10:45am - 11:15am

Venue - Junior School Hall

From - The Year 4 Team

Dear Parents and Carers,

 

I am writing to clarify the arrangements for this week due to the extreme heat warning which has been issued by the Met Office.

 

Firstly - It will come as no surprise that I have taken the decision to postpone the junior school sports day. Ironically the infant sports day was postponed only last week due to rain, now the junior one is being postponed due to excessive heat! We hope to try again on Friday 3^rd July.

 

Secondly - We have been provided with some guidance by the DfE for hot weather and heatwaves, to ensure all children remain safe, comfortable and well hydrated. Neither of the main school buildings has air conditioning, only the community room does – but not enough space for 500 children!

To help manage this unusual situation:

• Children do not need to wear school uniform. We suggest they wear clothing which is light and airy, preferably no strappy tops (as they will be outside at some point and more prone to being sun burnt) and ensure they have a sun hat. (Infant children are provided with one)
• Ensure your child has sun cream, with high sun protection factors, applied before they come to school.
• Inform us if your child has a medical condition which may be affected by the heat.
• Sunglasses and hand-held fans are not brought into school as they can be a safety issue when out playing.

In school we will:

• Be ensuring that all classrooms are well ventilated, with fans on where possible.
• Hold PE lessons either in the morning, or, in the school hall during the hottest parts of the day and they will have reduced impact activities.
• Ensure children will be having regular drink breaks to ensure they stay well hydrated.
• Modify lessons as necessary
• Issue guidance to all staff on heat related medical conditions in children so they can look out for signs and address them quickly.
• Ensure children have access to shaded areas at lunchtimes and playtimes, if they so wish.
• If parents so wish, they can collect their child at 1.30 on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday from their usual collection points If you would like your child to finish early please complete the permission form.    Early Finish Permision Form – Fill out form
• Any children not being collected at 1.30 will remain at school until usual end of day.
• Please note all after school clubs will be cancelled on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.

 

Year 6 Induction Day

Please note – The Vyne Induction Day on Thursday has been cancelled, so year 6 children are expected to attend school as usual but can be collected early as mentioned above.

 

BPSM

Children involved in the BPSM concert will be expected to attend the full day rehearsal as planned, tomorrow, however they do not need to wear school uniform for the rehearsal, but they will for the performance in the evening.
