Proudly Working Towards The Rainbow Flag Award

6th October 2022Mr Barnes

At the Beacon Centre we are Proud to be working towards achieving the Rainbow Flag Award.

The Rainbow Flag Award is a national quality assurance framework for primary schools, secondary schools, SEND schools and colleges. The award focuses on positive LGBT+, (lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, plus other related identities), inclusion and visibility.

The Rainbow Flag Award encourages a whole organisation approach to LGBT+ inclusion, as well as developing strategies to effectively challenge and combat LGBTphobic bullying.

The Rainbow Flag Award is a commitment to improve the lives of all the young people that we work with, as well as the LGBT+ young people in our care, those from LGBT+ families, and LGBT+ staff members.

Roald Dahl Day @ Primary

16th September 2022Mr Barnes

Primary are celebrating Roald Dahl Day today, and don’t we know it?!
We have Matildas, witches (they hide in plain sight, so can look just like ordinary people), BFGs and The Twits in school today. 
Mrs Simpson, our English lead, has worked with staff to develop a day of Dahl themed learning and activities to look forward to including a treasure hunt, reading tasks, fine motor skills activities and lots of cooking to develop D&T, reading and Maths knowledge. 
Our RESPECT values of teamwork, communication and excellence will also be demonstrated throughout the day.

RIP ERII

15th September 2022Mr Barnes

Staff and pupils from our Primary School paid their respects to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by signing the book of condolence at South Shields Town Hall today.

The pupils were excellent ambassadors for the school, showing the greatest respect for The Queen and demonstrating thoughtful behaviour towards members of the public who were also paying their respects and using their manners.

School Council arranged to return on Friday to lay some flowers at the statue of Queen Victoria.

Outdoor Learning @ Primary

7th September 2022Mr Barnes

At primary, outdoor learning is a large part of our day. We have continuous provision and offer a range of adult led activities on a lunchtime. 
Everyone – especially the staff – have had a great time today with the parachute! 
Our children (and adults) have played a variety of games, taken turns, followed instructions and waited patiently. 

They have also practiced counting, gross motor skills and rhyming while they’ve played, and practiced fractions and teamwork when they folded the parachute away. 
Great job everyone!

St Mary’s Light House Visit.

16th May 2022Mr Barnes

Red class have been on a visit to St Mary’s island. They have been reading the books ‘Somebody Swallowed Stanley’, which is all about looking after the wildlife in our sea and ‘Sharing a Shell’,  which is all about the creatures in our rockpools. The whole class behaved beautifully and followed all instructions about water safety. They all listened carefully about why they had to wear suitable clothing, and helped each other swap into their wellies. Everyone had a great time seeing the seals swimming and climbing on the rocks. They then carefully had a look in the rock pools and were thrilled when they found carbs, hermit crabs, shrimps and fish.

Commando Joe’s Staff Training

27th April 2022Mr Barnes

What is Commando Joe’s?

Commando Joe’s is one of the UK’s leading educational providers, utilising the expertise of service personnel to improve the educational outcomes for pupils through our RESPECT programme. Working on Resilience, Empathy, Self-Awareness, Positivity, Excellence, Communication and Teamwork.

Commando Joe’s

How will Commando Joe’s be used?

Within the Beacon Centre, across both sites, young people will have the opportunity to complete challenges in order to build their RESPECT development areas. This will be used both during structured lesson times and during through times when young people need time to regulate and reflect on their behaviour.

The Training

In order for the programme to have the greatest impact, it was important that the staff at the Beacon Centre experience a session first hand and had an understanding of the theory / evidence base behind the practise. To that end staff completed both classroom based and out of classroom elements throughout the day. As can be seen in the photographs below.
