OFSTED REPORT AND LETTER FROM MRS DAVIS
Dear Parents and Carers,
It is with great delight and a deep sense of pride that I share with you the Ofsted report following our recent inspection. I know the school governors join me in expressing how proud we all are of Reigate Parish and the commitment shown by every member of our school community in upholding our vision: that all children and adults reach to achieve their best, rooted in the belief that God desires everyone to fulfil their capabilities.
As you will recall, we were inspected on 10th and 11th June under the rigorous standards of the current Ofsted framework. We had what is termed an “ungraded” inspection.
I am pleased to inform you that the inspector found that Reigate Parish has taken effective action to maintain the standards identified at the previous inspection. Our last inspection took place in June 2018, when we were judged to be "Outstanding."
Under Ofsted's revised framework, schools are no longer given a single word judgment for ungraded inspections. However, the outcome of this inspection confirms that we continue to meet the high standards expected of an outstanding school, and we have successfully taken the necessary steps to maintain those standards.
Please do take the time to read the full report, which I have attached to this email.
Thank you, as always, for your continued support and partnership in making Reigate Parish such a special and successful school for your child.
Kind regards,
Mrs Davis
Headteacher

SUSPICIOUS BEHAVIOUR - UPDATE
Dear parents and carers,
Following the email earlier this week regarding the white van on Blackborough Road, it has come to the attention of numerous staff members that children throughout all year groups are talking about it and are aware of the detail in the email sent to parents.
We are very concerned that we now have children across the school feeling unsafe and frightened, and as a result are having to deploy staff, including the ELSA, to take children who are not feeling safe out of class to reassure them. Staff have had to deal with tears, anxiety and children telling other children they are going to be abducted.
From a safeguarding perspective the school felt it necessary to share this information with you, to enable you to talk to your child/ren about it an age-appropriate way. Whilst we understand there will always be playground chatter amongst the children, we strongly urge you to manage this type of information with your child/ren carefully and in a sensitive, age-appropriate manner in order not to alarm them.
Please can you reassure your child/ren they are safe.
Many thanks,
Mrs Davis
SUSPICIOUS BEHAVIOUR
Dear parents and carers,
A member of staff who lives on the corner of Chart Lane and Blackborough Road has advised they received a visit from the police last Thursday, to say a white van had been seen driving down Blackborough Road offering sweets to children.
Please be aware and alert the police of anything suspicious you may witness.
Please also have a discussion with your child about "stranger danger", the importance of not engaging with people they don't know and reiterate the need to make a parent/staff member immediately aware of anything like this happening to them. This is especially important for those Year 5 or 6 children who walk to/from school.
Many thanks.
