School Policies and Procedures

School policies cover every aspect of school life. Below are some of our most important policies for your reference. If you want to know our policy on something that is not listed, or obtain paper copies of any documents please contact the school office@wolseyhouse.leicester.sch.uk and we will respond to your request. Please click on the folders below for information about the Pupil Premium Funding and Sports Premium Funding.

Policies set out the practical implications of how to achieve the school's vision and are a key means of ensuring that agreed values underpin day-to-day decisions and actions in our school. They are concerned with key processes within school and are about interactions between school, pupils, parents and community.  They are about ensuring highly effective teaching and learning, safeguarding, health and safety and basic human rights. 

All policies at Wolsey House Primary School are intended to guide the work of the headteacher and staff to provide a framework for the efficient functioning of the school based in a shared understanding of the school's strategic plan and vision.

There are 3 categories of policy:

• Statutory - covering major strategic areas required by law, as stated by the Government's Statutory Policies for Schools document (updated January 2020) https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/statutory-policies-for-schools-and-academy-trusts
• Discretionary - additional policies covering additional areas, not required by law.
• Curriculum- policies on specific subject areas of the curriculum. These are all discretionary.

Our policies are reviewed annually or bi-annually in accordance to our 'review of statutory policies and document' and each policy is 'owned' jointly by a member of staff and the Leadership Team or a Governor, and ratified by the Governing Body.

Our Statutory policies can be seen below and some of our most important discretionary policies are also shared on this page. There are links to policies which are in other sections of the website.
