In October 2008 We received a most welcome support from the Coordinator of the North East Community Improvement Partnership
Mrs Derham, NECIP Coordinator, in contacting us, stated that they 'work with 7 schools in the NE of Portsmouth to deliver the extended services agenda. And as a governor at Court Lane Junior saw an Awaaire Bear in one of the classrooms - it is very popular and well used by the children when in distress - as an NQT was a SCITT graduate.'
NECIP therefore placed seven AWAAIREBEARS in the following schools:
- Court Lane Infant School
- Court Lane Junior School
- Solent Infant School
- Solent Junior School
- Highbury Primary School
- Redwood Park Special Secondary School
- Springfield Secondary School
