Welcome to Moorside
Moorside Primary School is a co-educational day school for children between the ages of
3 and 11. The school has extensive grounds, with activity areas to extend the
curriculum and contribute to the physical development of the children.
Admissions Most children attending Moorside Primary will first attend the nursery. Children are
admitted to the nursery when their fourth birthday falls between 1st September and
31st August of that academic year. Places in the nursery are allocated on a full time
basis. We are able to accommodate 60 children at any one time.
Children are admitted to the reception class when their fifth birthday falls between 1st
September and 31st August of that academic year. Attendance at our nursery does not
lead to automatic admission to our reception classes.
The school follows Salford LEA admission procedures. A summary of the regulations for
admission to Moorside Primary School can be found in the appendices. A full copy can be
obtained from the school office and on the school website www.moorsideprimary.net.
Parents of new children starting in September are invited to an evening meeting in
June. This pre-school meeting is an opportunity for the Head Teacher and staff to meet
parents and to discuss many aspects of school life. New parents are invited to bring
their child to school to spend some time in the nursery or reception classes before they
start in September.

Assessment and Achievement
The school actively monitors and assesses teaching and learning from nursery onwards
to ensure that individual learning requirements are being provided and children are
achieving their potential.
Progress is assessed and recorded regularly
through informal teacher assessment and
through more rigorous testing. Assessment is
a planned part of the curriculum and gives
information about a child’s achievements and
progress. By involving children in their own
assessment and guiding them in setting
personal targets for future progress, we
encourage them to become more responsible
for their learning.
In accordance with current legislation, children are formally assessed at the end of
Key Stage 1 (7 years) and Key Stage 2 (11 years). Other end of year assessments
also take place throughout Key Stage 2.
Attendance Regular and punctual attendance is a crucial factor in determining a child’s
progress at school. If your child is absent from school you should inform the school by
telephone no later than 9.30am. This enables the class teacher to complete the
register accurately and authorise the absence. All absences have to be recorded and
reported to the LA and are regularly monitored by the Inclusion Officer. If there are
concerns with attendance or punctuality the Inclusion officer will contact parents/
carers to discuss the matter.
It is a statutory responsibility of parents/carers to ensure that their children attend
school when it is open. As of 1st September 2013, the new law gives no entitlement
to parents to take their child on holiday in term time. Any application for leave must
only be in exceptional circumstances and the Head Teacher must be satisfied that the
circumstances are exceptional and warrant the granting of leave. Head Teachers
would not be expected to class any term time holiday as exceptional. Parents may
be fined for taking their child on holiday during term time.
www.moorsideprimary.net
Moorside Community Primary School
Breakfast Club/After School Club
Moorside Community Primary School Page 7
The school operates a before and after school club called Scallywags which opens at
7.45am and closes at 5.45pm. The club is also open during school holidays. Places are
limited and further details can be obtained from the school office.
Charging Policy The School Governors have adopted the LA ‘Charging and Remission Policy’. This
means that the school is able to ask parents for voluntary contributions for activities
which take place largely during school hours.
No child will be prevented from taking part in any visit or activity should their parent/
carer not be able to meet the full cost. However, in the event of insufficient
contributions, it may be necessary to cancel the visit. For activities such as school
holidays and residential activities, parents are expected to pay the full cost.
Child Protection and Safeguarding It is a legal requirement that schools play a vital part in the detection and prevention of
child abuse. Within every school there must be a designated member of staff responsible
for child protection. It is the duty of every member of staff to report concerns immediately
and for the child protection officer to follow the correct procedures as laid down by Local
Authority Child Protection Procedures
Collective Worship In accordance with the Education Reform Act all children participate in a daily act of
worship of a broadly Christian character. Those assemblies and the religious
education offered follow Salford’s agreed syllabus and children may be withdrawn from
assemblies or religious instruction at the request of the parent in consultation with the
Head Teacher.
Complaints Procedure Parents concerned about any aspect of their child’s school life should first discuss
their concerns with their child’s class teacher. If parents still have concerns after
meeting with their child’s teacher, they should then arrange a meeting with the relevant
Key Stage Leader to take the matter further. After this, if the matter is still not resolved,
an appointment should be made to see the Deputy Head Teacher. After following this
procedure, you may then wish to take the complaint further to the Head Teacher.
www.moorsideprimary.net
Head Teacher: Mr S Lawler-Smith Deputy Head Teacher: Mr A Hossen
We will make every effort to address concerns at the earliest opportunity. In the
unlikely event that the matter is not satisfactorily resolved, there is a formal
procedure for the purpose of hearing and dealing with complaints in respect of the
school curriculum and related matters. A copy of the complaints procedure can be
obtained from the office or on the school website at www.moorsideprimary.net
Equal Opportunities At Moorside we aim to foster a community based upon respect for each other. This
means that children are treated with fairness, justice and equality. Individuals receive
the same opportunities irrespective of differences in social and economic background,
race, gender and culture. We teach children to recognise people’s differences as
well as similarities. All children are given learning opportunities to equip them with
the knowledge, skills and understanding they need, to lead confident, healthy,
independent lives and to become informed, active, responsible citizens.
Discipline The discipline we seek to develop is self-discipline. The school is considered a
community where each individual has a worthwhile contribution to make and where
individuals’ needs, rights and opinions are respected and valued.
As with any community, the school has rules which are designed to allow the school to
function fairly and efficiently as a place of learning – academically and socially.
We expect our children to behave in a considerate and courteous manner on all
occasions. If ever a child’s behaviour, attitude etc is giving us cause for concern,
parents are informed and invited to come into school in order to resolve the
problem.
The school’s behaviour policy is available to parents on request from the school office or
on the school website at www.moorsideprimary.net

Trips and Visits Teachers plan educational visits per half-term for their class. This is to provide your
children with rich educational experiences to enable them to make sense of the learning
occurring in school. We use our school minibuses for transport.
In our school we offer the following residential visits:
Extra-curricular Activities
We offer a wide range of extra-curricular
activities which take place during the lunch
hour or after school from Reception up to
Year 6. All teachers run at least one club
for a term, while other clubs are staffed by
our specialist sports coach. They vary
throughout the year and pupils are given a
choice of clubs at the start of each term.

Head Teacher: Mr S Lawler-Smith Deputy Head Teacher: Mr A Hossen
All children from Reception to Year 6 follow a core curriculum of:
English
Mathematics
Science
In addition they are taught the following Foundation Subjects:
History
Geography
Music
Art and Design
Design Technology
Physical Education
Personal, Social and Health Education (PSHE)
Computing
Religious Education
Languages (Key Stage 2)
We aim to provide a broad b a l a nc e d and stimulating curriculum through which
children acquire knowledge, experience and understanding. Great emphasis is placed
upon the basic skills of reading, writing and mathematics; our aim being to teach these
subjects in a way that is meaningful and interesting to the children.
The National Curriculum is divided into:
Early Years Foundation Stage Nursery, Reception (3-5 years)
Key Stage 1 Years 1 and 2 (aged 5-7 years)
Key Stage 2 Years 3, 4 and 5 Year 6 (7-11 years)

Curriculum
www.moorsideprimary.net
Moorside Community Primary School
Moorside Community Primary School Page 11
All classes contain children with a wide range of abilities. It is essential that individual
needs are catered for and to this end a variety of teaching methods are employed. The
style adopted will be appropriate to the age, experience and ability of the children
and also the subject being taught. Children are encouraged to investigate, explore
and be active participants in their own learning.
Careful planning for half-termly (or shorter) topics takes place to ensure that National
Curriculum subjects are fully covered.
Early Years Foundation Stage The children in the Nursery and the Reception classes follow the curriculum for the
Foundation Stage.
The Foundation Stage curriculum is divided into seven areas of learning::
Prime Areas
Communication and Language
Physical Development
Personal, Social and Emotional
Development
Specific Areas
English
Mathematics
Understanding the World
Expressive Arts and Design
The Foundation Stage begins when children reach the age of three and by this time
children will have already learnt a great deal. Children are constantly encountering
new experiences and seeking to understand them in order to extend their skills,
develop their confidence and build on what they already know. Children deepen
their understanding by playing, talking, observing, planning, questioning,
experimenting, testing, repeating, reflecting and responding to adults and each other.
www.moorsideprimary.net
Head Teacher: Mr S Lawler-Smith Deputy Head Teacher: Mr A Hossen
Page 12
English English has a high priority both in its own right and because it allows children to gain
access to all the areas of the curriculum. At Moorside we want children to develop
effective communication skills both in their speech and in their writing, and to listen and
read with understanding and pleasure.
We view the partnership between home and school as a valuable aspect in the
development of reading. From the Foundation Stage, children will take home a reading
book and a library book on a regular basis to share with adults.
Children are encouraged to become writers from a very early age. They are taught a
wide range of skills which enable them to write for different purposes and different
audiences. These skills are also practised through other subject areas across the
curriculum. We have high expectations of presentation in books, and teach children to
become independent when checking the quality of their work.
Phonics Read Write Inc. is a method of learning centred around letter sounds and phonics, and
we use it here at Moorside Primary School to aid children in their reading and writing
skills.
Reading opens the door to
learning. A child who reads a
lot will become a good reader.
A good reader will be able to
read more challenging
material. A child who reads
challenging material is a child
who will learn. The more a
child learns, the more he or
she will want to find out.
Using Read Write Inc, the children learn to read effortlessly so that they can put all their
energy into comprehending what they read. It also allows them to spell effortlessly so that
they can put all their energy into composing what they write.
www.moorsideprimary.net
Moorside Community Primary School
When using Read Write Inc to read the children will:
learn 44 sounds and the corresponding letter/letter groups using simple picture
prompts.
learn to read words using Fred Talk.
read lively stories featuring words they have learned to sound out.
show that they comprehend the stories by answering questions.
When using Read Write Inc to write the children will:
learn to write the letters/letter groups which represent 44 sounds.
learn to write words by saying the sounds in Fred Talk.
write simple sentences.
compose stories based on picture strips.
compose a range of stories based on writing frames.
The children are assessed every six weeks in order to ensure that they are being
supported and challenged throughout their Read Write Inc journey.
Mathematics Mathematics teaches us how to make sense of
the world around us through developing a child’s
ability to calculate, to reason and to solve problems.
The school’s main objective is to ensure that
children enjoy and understand mathematics and its
use in everyday life. Daily maths lessons in school
develop children’s mathematical skills and knowledge
where basic mental maths has a high profile.
Science Our work in this subject ensures that children relate science to everyday life and are
stimulated by investigational, exploration and problem-solving activities in which they are
involved. By developing their investigational skills in practical science situations they
become adept at making observations, fair testing and the drawing of conclusions, which
they feel confident to share with their peers.

Head Teacher: Mr S Lawler-Smith Deputy Head Teacher: Mr A Hossen
Computing The teaching of ICT helps to equip children to take part in a rapidly changing world.
Children have access to a computer suite where they have the opportunity to develop
their ICT capabilities and have controlled access to the internet. ICT is also used to
reinforce and extend teaching across all curriculum areas.
History Children’s historical knowledge, understanding and empathy is acquired through an
investigative approach. Artefacts, photographs, eye witness accounts, books and
pictures are all used to stimulate the children’s curiosity about the past. History also
contributes to a child’s knowledge and understanding of other countries and other
cultures in the modern world.
Geography Through our geography curriculum we aim to provide opportunities for children to show
interest, enquiry and understanding of the changes and developments of the world
around them. The children learn about maps, places, the weather and land formation.
They also study human influences
on the world such as pollution and
they find out about the effects of
settlements and transport.
Music The teaching of music develops
pupils’ ability to listen and also
increases self-discipline and
creativity. The children are given
the opportunity to develop the
ability to perform and compose
music with understanding. They will
be given opportunities to listen to
and appraise music, to gain knowledge of music history and experience of diverse
musical cultures.
The children will also have the opportunity to sing, play and listen to a range of music and
to devise, develop and record their own musical ideas and compositions.
Page 14 www.moorsideprimary.net
Moorside Community Primary School
Art We encourage the children to experience and observe a wide range of creative arts. We
achieve this by providing a variety of art, craft and design activities, equipment and
materials to encourage development of visual perception and skills. The children are also
encouraged to evaluate their work and become more aware of the art and artists of other
times and cultures, as well as those of today.
Children’s work is displayed in all areas of school to create an attractive and visually
stimulating environment. This gives children the opportunity to see and value the work of
others.
Design and Technology We provide a range of opportunities to
investigate materials, mechanisms,
structures and existing products.
Throughout the school, children will
experience working with textiles, food,
electronics and a range of construction
materials. Topics taught will involve
them in the processes of identifying
needs, generating ideas, planning and
making and evaluating what they have
produced.
Religious Education As the school is designated a community school, there is no religious affiliation and
religious education is in accordance with the Salford Agreed Syllabus. Through this
syllabus we aim to encourage children towards an understanding of beliefs, values and
practices and to develop in themselves sensitivity and respect towards other people’s
faiths.
Personal, Social, Health Education and Citizenship Personal, social and health education and citizenship enables children to become
healthy, independent and responsible members of society. A wide variety of resources
are available in school and a mobile caravan makes a regular visit to the school to
support work in PSHE.

Sex and Relationship Education
Page 16
Sex and relationship education is incorporated into religious and personal, social,
health education and citizenship programmes at levels that relate to the age and
degree of maturity of the child.
Our school sex education policy is reviewed annually with reference to the most
recent documentation from the DfE. Copies are available from the school office.
Parents have the right to withdraw their child from all or part of the sex education
provided, and are welcome to discuss all aspects of our sex education policy with the
Head Teacher before making any decisions concerning the child.
Physical Education Physical education plays an important part in each child’s overall development and the
life of the school in general. We aim to develop physical competence and teach pupils,
through experience, to know about and value the benefits of participation in physical
activity while at school and throughout life.
All children are taught gymnastics,
dance and games throughout the school
year. This is carefully planned to ensure
continuity and progression. Children also
take part in the following activities at
certain times in their school life as part
of the planned whole school curriculum:
swimming, athletics, outdoor and
adventurous activities.
The school employs a dedicated sports coach to cover a varied range of sports in school.
The coach also supervises lunch time activities and after school clubs throughout the year.
School teams take part in many inter-school fixtures and events such as netball,
football, cross-country, athletics, rounders, lacrosse and swimming. We believe that
sport is for all and all children are encouraged to join our extra- curricular sporting clubs
no matter what their ability.

Moorside Community Primary School
Homework
Moorside Community Primary School Page 17
We have a homework policy and parents are informed of homework expectations for
each year group at the start of the school year. Homework is seen as an important link
between school and home and parental support is essential for any homework
programme to be successful.
The range and amount of homework given inevitably differs between the age groups. At
Key Stage 1, homework mainly consists of reading, learning spellings and weekly maths
homework. At Key Stage 2, homework is more formal and all classes have spelling lists
and multiplication tables to learn for weekly tests. Parents are asked to ensure that
children read regularly and are given opportunities to discuss what they have read.
Special Educational Needs At Moorside we strive to provide an enriched and challenging curriculum that is accessible
to all. At all times we treat every child individually and recognise that some children require
support that is additional to or different from others in their class. This requirement may be
in an area of learning, a behavioural or emotional difficulty or exceptional ability. We
carefully and regularly asses the needs of our children and provide appropriate
interventions to help every child succeed and grow.
Some children may need an Individual Education Plan (IEP), which clearly outlines the
areas of focus. We actively collaborate with parents and carers in the writing of IEPs, which
allows us to work in partnership. Once the IEP is in place, our Special Educational Needs
Coordinators (SENCOs), teachers and teaching assistants offer additional help and support
on a 1:1 basis and in small groups to enable each child to progress. IEPs are evaluated
and updated regularly by staff and formally each term with parents, carers and children.
As a team we always aim to eliminate barriers, challenge and support our children to become confident, lifelong learners.
www.moorsideprimary.net
Head Teacher: Mr S Lawler-Smith Deputy Head Teacher: Mr A Hossen
When children start at the school, parents are asked to complete an annual consent
form with details of who can be contacted in the event of an accident or illness. These
forms are updated on an annual basis and it is important that parents inform us of any
changes as soon as possible.
We understand that there are occasions when children need to complete prescribed
medication. School can only administer medicine prescribed by a doctor and a
medical form must be completed which is available from the office. Medicines must
be clearly labelled with contents, name and dosage instructions.
Friends of Moorside Primary There is an active Parent Teacher Association whose aim is to further the
education of the children by offering support to the school, largely by the raising of
funds. All parents are automatically members of the association. A committee is
elected at the Annual General Meeting which is usually held in school in October.
Governing Body The Governing Body of the school consists of nine members who meet regularly and
are fully informed of all aspects of school life. Parents have the opportunity to become a
school governor and all parents are given the opportunity to take part in the election of
parent governors.
If you would like further advice on the duties of a governor, please contact the Head
Teacher or Chair of Governors.
Pupil Governors We try to give children a voice in school. It is very important that their thoughts and
opinions are valued. One way of doing this is through a school council that is made up
of two pupil governors from each class (Year 1 upwards) . The pupil governors
meet regularly to share ideas, express any concerns, celebrate school achievements
and discuss ways of improving the school.

Partnerships with Parents
Moorside Community Primary School Page 19
There are many areas in school where we greatly appreciate the help given by parents and
members of the community.
Healthy Schools We are involved in the National Healthy
Schools Standard. This has provided
opportunities to improve our health through a
number of initiatives.
Jewellery No jewellery is allowed in school with the exception of watches. Earrings of any type are
regarded as inadvisable on the grounds of health and safety. However, if a parent insists
on their child wearing earrings, only stud earrings are allowed and written permission must
be obtained from the Head Teacher.
Reporting to Parents
We provide parents with the opportunity to meet with teachers each year. There are
formal Parents’ Evenings in the Autumn and Spring terms. We report annually to
parents in an end of year report when teachers make written comments about a
child’s progress in the National Curriculum subjects. We also report on behaviour,
attendance and punctuality. Parents are welcome to discuss all aspects of school
reports with teachers and the Headteacher.
Regular communications are sent out to keep parents informed of all school activities and
our website can be accessed on www.moorsideprimary.net.
If at any time you have a problem or query concerning your child or the school in general,
please phone and make an appointment to see either the teacher concerned, Assistant
Headteacher, Deputy Headteacher or the Headteacher. We should like to stress that you
are welcome to make such appointments. Only through close liaison between home
and school can your child receive maximum benefits from the education service we offer.

Meals
At lunchtime the children may either bring a packed lunch from home or choose a
lunch provided by the school. Details of the meal service are made available to
parents when their children are admitted to school. Free meals are available for those
who qualify. Advice or information for parents on how to claim for free school meals is
available from the school office or on the school website at www.moorsideprimary.net.
Parents of children bringing their own packed lunch
are asked to send children with a healthy lunch in
non-breakable containers for both food and drinks.
Cans are not allowed. Drinking water is provided for
all pupils.
Milk and Fruit Children under the age of five receive free school milk. For children aged five and over,
milk has to be paid for termly, in advance. Children in receipt of free school meals
will receive free milk.
Children are also encouraged to drink water in school. Children need to have their own
water bottle, which is clearly labelled. Bottles are regularly sent home to be washed
thoroughly.
All four to six-year-old children are given a free piece of fruit or vegetable each school day
as part of the national School Fruit and Vegetable Scheme.

Biometric System
For some years, schools have successfully operated biometric systems for catering
purposes and we are using biometric technology to support the new cashless catering
system.
This will mean that pupils are unable to use cash at the food counter (till point); all
cash has to be entered into the system by using the automatic cash terminals
(revaluation units) and cannot be used to buy food directly at the dinner counters. We
have also introduced Parentpay so that any parents, who wish to pay for lunches etc
online, can do so.
We are sure you will appreciate the advantages the system will offer both yourself
and your child. These include:
The ability to deliver a more efficient, faster service over the lunch period whilst
continuing to provide wholesome, healthy, and enjoyable meals at the lowest cost.
Convenience of paying for school meals. No more looking for change every
morning.
Reducing problems associated with the use of cash in school, i.e. loss or theft.
Automatic free meal allocation, where appropriate, with the pupil remaining
anonymous (please see additional letter which outlines how to register for free
school meals).
Reports detailing each item of food served are available on request if you wish to
see what your child is having for lunch.
Pupils with allergies can have products ‘barred’ from their selection if required.
Any amount of money can be paid into your child’s account via a revaluation terminal;
this is held within the system with money spent on food being deducted from the balance.
The revaluation terminal can be used at any point to see how much money is remaining.
Revaluation units are programmed to accept £20, £10 & £5 notes and £2, £1, 50p, 20p
& 10p coins. There is a daily ‘spend limit’ programmed into the system. If you do not wish
to opt into the biometric system, we will use your child’s photograph which is held on
the school SIMS System to identify him/her.
