Attention all Nursery Parents! 30 hours childcare for working parents.

St Ambrose offer 30 hours free childcare for those children whose parents are eligible to claim.  Please visit www.childcarechoices.gov.uk for more details.  30 hours funded childcare is intended to support working parents with the cost of childcare. It will enable them, where they wish, to return to work or to work additional hours.

In the event that you are not eligible to claim the 30 hours free childcare, you will still receive 15 hours of free childcare which will be in the form of 5 mornings per week from 8:45am till 11:45pm.  St Ambrose also offers a “top up” facility where your child can stay until 3.30pm and the charge for this will be £10 per afternoon session.  

Information for Parents - KS1 and KS2

The leaflets below have been issued by the Standards & Testing Agency for  Parents of children in Year 2 and Year 6 who have sat the SATS.

KS1 - Year 2 parents

KS2 - Year 6 parents

Information for Year 6 parents - IGO Pass

Year 6 pupils will  require a IGO card (from Transport for Greater Manchester) in order to travel on public transport at the concessionary rate, this also includes school services.  A high  number of our pupils will use public transport and school services to travel to school and it is important that they have an IGO card in order to facilitate this.

They will also need to apply separately for the Yellow Bus scheme if your school uses them and also free school travel if they are eligible.

Unfortunately last year a number of pupils did not apply for the Yellow Bus scheme with in timescales, resources were reallocated to alternative schools within Greater Manchester and could not then be restored. This had a major impact on school attendance for some secondary schools.

Therefore, I would appreciate it if the information below can be disseminated to parents as soon as possible either by text, email or hard copy.

Info for parents

Pupils aged 11 to 16, MUST have an Igo card to travel using any child ticket on buses in Greater Manchester. I understand that they must have a Igo card to make an application for the Yellow bus scheme

Applications for Igo passes, apply at:

https://tfgm.com/tickets-and-passes/igo-pass (available now)

Applications for the Yellow Bus Scheme, apply at:

https://tfgm.com/tickets-and-passes/bus-yellow-school-buses.( available 1st June 30th June)

Applications for free school travel (for eligible pupils), apply at:

https://www.stockport.gov.uk/travel-to-school (available week of the 6th May)

Failure to apply for places on the Yellow  Bus Scheme may result in the resources not being allocated this year and  may cause difficulties again with school attendance.
