Welcome from the Head Teacher
As a practising Roman Catholic, I am extremely proud to be the HeadTeacher at St Ethelbert's Catholic Primary School and Nursery. Since starting in September 2020, I lead an experienced, hardworking, outward looking and committed team who look forward to developing the school further for the children and local community. I have worked in Thanet throughout my whole career so know the area very well.

The latest SEND Roadshow is taking place next Thursday (16 July) in Thanet and we would be very grateful if you could share this with your parent/carer community. SEND roadshows give families and professionals the opportunity to come together, hear updates, and ask questions about local SEND services and support. They are a great chance to access face-to-face support, connect with local services, share feedback, and learn more about what is available for children and young people with SEND in Kent. Details of the SEND Roadshow in Thanet next week: Northdown Road Family Hub, Zion Place, Margate, CT9 1RP Thursday 16th July: 10:30am – 12:30pm Also see the attached flyer for more info. Please note that parking at the back of the hub is limited; there is street parking available along the seafront or on the side roads, with the nearest car park being Trinity Square Car Park, CT9 1LZ. Previous roadshows have helped many families connect with a wide range of services, offering valuable one-to-one advice and guidance on areas including education, health, emotional wellbeing and local support. Children are very welcome if you need to bring them along. More SEND roadshows will be taking place across the county, so please encourage families to keep an eye on the SEND Information Hub and the KCC Facebook page for upcoming dates. If you have any questions or accessibility requirements, please email sendroadshows@kent.gov.uk.
