Tudor Church of England Primary School

At Tudor, we are keen to support families with the ever rising cost of living.

• We have 'pre loved' school uniform available for free. This is usually a growing collection throughout the year so please do feel free to check in regularly to see what we currently have to offer. 

• Allowance is available annually to support with the cost of trips or school supplies for families in receipt of Pupil Premium. Please speakwith the office, Mrs Campbell or Mrs Dew for support with trips when your child receives their trip letter. 

• The Foodbank in our local area is held currently at the Vineyard centre just up the road from us here at Tudor.  Please ask if you would like information about this and we will happily help you out or even come with you if you would like. As a school we support the Foodbank throughout the year in many ways. Please follow this link:https://www.stourvalleyvineyard.org/storehouse 

• If you are struggling to make ends meet at home, either with food costs, clothing costs of fuel costs, please speak with us early. We have many avenues we could explore with you to help you out. Please don't suffer in silence.
