Copper Fields School

We show our complete support for this amazing school! This is a site at one of our local schools in our Outcomes First Group.

To lose access to this outstanding resource would be such a shame and hugely impactful to so many children and young people!

PARENTS who send their children to a “game-changing” specialist school have urged decision-makers to back retrospective plans for its vital farm site.

We hope everyone has had a lovely summer break.

A message to our learners, their families and carers…

As we return after a long break away from school, away from the routines of school and our friends, returning to school can be tricky sometimes.

It’ll take some adjustment, but that’s fine we’re here to support.
It’ll take rebuilding the routines which help with your day, but thats fine we’re here to support.

Parents and carers, make sure you take some pressure off yourself, whatever you read on social media or people tell you how to prepare your children to come back to school, you know them best. We’ll support you. All our learners are unique and everyone might well require something different.

We look forward to welcoming our learners back on Monday 7th September.

Chris Clements, Headteacher

We’re all immensely proud of Max at Copper Fields who has written a poem and had it published in the Outcomes First Group ‘The 100’!! This is a celebration of pupil voice and creativity across the schools in our group of schools.
Absolutely lovely to read through. And of course the highlight is to be found on page 17 😜
Max chose to write his poem very cleverly about Sir David Attenborough who celebrated his 100th birthday this year.
Very well done Max, very proud! Well done also to all our finalists!
Copies of this book are available. If you’d like one to purchase at http://www.lulu.com/shop/pupils-of-outcomes-firstgroup-schools-and-richard-power/the-100/paperback/product-95d2qzm.html?page=1&pageSize=4 Max of course gets his own copy 😀

Well done to our recent Star Readers 🌟 what an excellent choice of books they’ve chosen! 📕
One copy for them to take home, one copy for the school to inspire others into a wider range of books! To date we’ve purchased almost 30 books for star reader alone! 🙌

A great trip to Market Hall in Plymouth today to see Sir David Attenborough's Our Story. A great experience for 4 of our classes today. Bodmin, Plymouth, Callington, Bude and Bideford Classes had a great time and pupils have been asking to go back soon and even led to some careers discussions looking at the future.

Well done team Copper Fields!
