Operation Encompass is a project that will run jointly between schools and Dyfed-Powys Police. It is a county-wide initiative across all schools in Powys.

Operation Encompass is the reporting to schools, prior to the start of the next school day, when a child or young person has been exposed to, or involved in, any domestic incident.

Operation Encompass

Each year the Governors present a report to you, the parents, to give a summary of important information relating to the school’s performance for the last school year, ending July 2019.

We want our pupils to get the best education, and the building blocks for this begin with pupils coming to school each and every day. If children miss school regularly, they miss out on learning the fundamental skills that will set them up for success in the later years of school.

Our approach to ensuring regular school attendance is based on the Powys Traffic Lights attendance Scheme.
