Accredited Awards
Please see our marked Healthy Schools Award application submission below.
The Public Health Practitioner of our local authority stated the following when a member of staff alongside 2 children collected our Healthy Schools trophy:
"Parental support, communication and engagement is excellent at Jarrow Cross. As a school who implements the Thrive approach, staff are proactive at ensuring parents and carers are well informed about their child’s experiences at school. As well as being regularly invited into school for a variety of events and meeting opportunities, feedback is gained via questionnaires where parental views are valued and addressed by staff. There is a wealth of financial and emotional support available to families, such as education sessions like budget cooking classes, free or subsidised activities, and referrals to specific specialist services. Building secure relationships with parents and carers ensures that they are confident to approach staff members for support without fear of judgement."
“The public health team were very impressed with this strong Healthy Schools application received from Jarrow Cross Primary School. Jarrow Cross is one of the borough’s most engaged primaries for Healthy Schools and regularly provides evidence of the highest quality and innovative work around each of the criteria areas, which is often shared with wider teams and networks in the Council as examples of best practice. Staff are keen to work with the public health team to ensure the best possible health and wellbeing outcomes for their students, and this clearly shows in the children’s feedback that they are healthy, happy and valued.”
In addition, the Public Health Practitioner stated within our application that our work surrounding poverty proofing and providing children with broad experiences was very impressive. Therefore, she shared our work with South Tyneside Council's Poverty awareness department for examples of good practice.
