After the Full Governors meeting on Monday 29^th March, 2021, the Governors agreed the following statement:

 “The Governors of Linton Primary School believe the allocation of children to classes is an operational, professional decision which can only be taken by the Headteacher and staff. The Governors have total confidence that the staff know and understand the needs of all of the children, and will make the most appropriate allocation to ensure that every child achieves their potential.

Governors will continue to carefully monitor the achievements and progress of all children at the half termly Performance and Standards Committee meetings.

Criteria for mixed classes at Linton Primary School

At Linton Primary School the Pupil Admission Number is 40, therefore classes throughout school have to be mixed age. When creating the classes, staff work together using a range of criteria to ensure the best mix of pupils. Wherever possible, no particular group of pupils will be over represented in any class. Decisions are always made in the pupils’ best interests.

Home Learning Information

We have added lots of useful links for home learning ideas onto our Class pages above. Class teachers are also sending out additional home learning by email. 

We have also included some links to sites which the children use in school (such as Mathletics, TT Rockstars...) and many of these are also offering lots of hints and tips during this time. 

We are going through unpredictable times and whilst we understand you do not wish your children to fall behind in their learning, we would also like you to STAY SAFE. 

We are here for you at any time – please contact us, email your teachers and check in with us – we want to make sure you are all OK!
