Nythe Saturday Academy
The aim of the Saturday Academy is to: - Encourage parents and carers to
support their children throughout primary school and to celebrate the
significant role parents and carers play in their child’s learning experiences.
Each term the school will be open on a Saturday morning for families to come
and enjoy learning together.
Nythe have recently explored their good practice relating to various aspects
of parental involvement, of
which the Learning Tree is part, during an enquiry walk with Ronnie Woods of the
National College of School Leadership.
