Over the summer of 2010 we are delighted to have been accredited with the International Schools Award. This is a national award given by the British Council. The International School Award (ISA) is an accreditation scheme which recognises curriculum-based international work. The international dimension in education is an increasingly important part of agendas such as Every Child Matters and Community Cohesion; it supports the cultural heritage of teachers, learners and communities leading to positive learning across schools.
The ISA supports schools to develop:
* An international ethos embedded throughout the school
* A majority of pupils within the school impacted by and involved in international work
* Collaborative curriculum-based work with a number of partner schools
* Curriculum-based work across a range of subjects
* Year round international activity
* Involvement of the wider community
* Evaluation from a variety of sources allowing you to improve your activities and your international programme.
The ISA offers:
* A framework within which to form and develop international partnerships and achieve curriculum goals
* Ideas for developing collaborative curriculum-based international work with partner schools
* Recognition for teachers and their schools that instil a global dimension into the learning experience of all children and young people
* Opportunities to raise the school's profile through local and national media coverage
* Support for delivering on the Sustainable School agenda.
Many thanks go to the staff who have worked hard over the last three years to achieve this award. Particular thanks goes to Louise Barnes who has worked as our International Schools Coordinator.

School Admission Policy
The admission process begins in the June over a year before your child is due to start school. There is one intake each year in September and our current admission limit is 35. We send details of parents who have registered an interest in their child coming to St Andrew's (those who have completed an application form).
The Local Authority then send out application packs to the parents of these children in the November before the child is due to start and you have a few weeks to make your preferences . We hold an Open Day during this period and will write to all those people who have completed an application form to invite them to come and have a look round.
Parents are requested to make 3 preferences of schools to ensure they get a place at at least one of them and they receive notification of their child's allocated place in April before their child starts school. Once they have been allocated a place here then we start to contact parents with further information about induction meetings etc.
The Application to Register child for Admission - Reception is available from the office or by downloading from the link.
From time to time children may wish to transfer to St Andrew's from another school, for example if they have moved into the area. In the first instance you should contact us to establish if there is a place available in the year(s) you require.
If there is then we ask you to complete an Application to Register child for Transfer form which you can download from the link or obtain from the school office.
