You have arrived on this page because you are a volunteer, a student or on work experience.

We would like to welcome to you to Abbey Lane  Primary School. We form part of the Peak Edge Multi-Academy Trust.

Before you begin your journey with us, we would like to make sure that you are as prepared as possible for the road ahead.

This is where your induction begins!

Please read the information and watch the relevant induction videos. After that, there is a short quiz to submit before arranging your face-to-face induction.

 

Application Form

If your placement has not been arranged by a third party, and you are seeking to volunteer or undertake work experience with us, please make sure that you have completed the Peak Edge Placements and Work Experience Application Form and that you have emailed it back to the admin staff at school using the following email address: enquiries@abbeylane.sheffield.sch.uk. The school will consider your application and seek references. If you are successful, you will then need to complete the induction activities and arrange a time for a face-to-face induction and a start date.

Please watch the Peak Edge Induction Videos

The videos are presented by Jim Dugmore, CEO of Peak Edge Multi-Academy Trust. Please watch the videos before arranging your face-to-face induction.

Preparation for your face-to-face induction

Before going into school, please have a look at the policies on our policies page in particular, our Child Protection and Safeguarding Policy.

Take time to read and understand part 1 of the most recent version of Keeping Children Safe In Education. It is extremely important that you have read this document before beginning your placement at the school.

Please also take a moment to look at the policies on our Peak Edge Multi-academy Trust website, especially the Health & Safety Policy and the Code of Conduct.

Everyone who works in school needs to be fully aware of Safeguarding policies and procedures. Take time to have a look at the Sheffield Safeguarding Induction Pack.

Safeguarding Induction Pack

If you are over 18, you will need a DBS check. If you have one already, please bring it with you. The school will need to ensure that it is transferable. If you are unsure, please contact the school in order to resolve any issues quickly.
