Partington Central Academy

We conducted a meeting for parents about the Year 2 SATs on Tuesday, February 27, 2019.
The "Stay and Play" session was held by Reception on Thursday, February 7, 2019.
Parents and carers were invited to the facility to participate in some enjoyable activities with the kids and to see and celebrate what Reception had learned about this term.
The kids sang Twinkle Twinkle Little Star in Chinese as the lesson came to a close.

We would like to share what your children think of Partington Central Academy in light of a recent student poll (Jan '19).
If I'm concerned, I can talk to an adult. "We are all treated equally here, and the learning environment is good."
Year 6 student.
Teachers have great personalities, which I find appealing.
We had a number of visitors last week (June 14th, 2019) who were gushing about the students and the school.
After successful sessions with the Y6 students, the bikeability instructor came to see Miss Edwards to express their gratitude and best wishes to the school.
He expressed his admiration for the academic levels, as well as the children's conduct and attitudes.
Additionally, the poetry instructor who visited PCA to conduct poetry workshops with our Y3 students sent us a nice email. "It was a complete pleasure," he said.
I went to Partington Central Academy today because I was unable to make it to my Sale school for employment.
I enjoyed my day.
A team of three senior leaders from across the trust performed an assurance check on Partington Central Academy for the whole of the day.
The Assurance Team spoke with several staff members, including the Executive Headteacher, Head of School, teachers, newly qualified teachers, and support personnel, while visiting lessons across the entire school.
Speaking with the students in their classes and seeing them eat lunch allowed for the recording of student voice, which was a key component of this inspection.
The Assurance Team triangulated its results using data from internal and external sources as well as instructional observations, student voice, staff interviews, and school documentation.
I'm happy to report that the day was a success, and as always, Partington Central's students and staff did us proud.
"Behavior in lessons is good," the evaluation panel remarked.
Behavior systems are strong, and there is no evidence of low level disturbance.
Additionally, they commented on the calibre of the lessons they had observed, saying, "Lessons observed were good.
When commenting on staff during lesson time the Assurance Team said that "Their use of questioning was excellent-probing".
It was a hugely successful day that showcased the achievements of both the pupils and staff at PCA.
Please see further comments below from the final report and subsequent comments made by the team.
