Primary Education
Our primary education programme delivers the national curriculum through engaging, child-centred learning experiences. We focus on developing literacy and numeracy foundations while nurturing creativity and critical thinking. Our teachers employ evidence-based assessment methods to track individual progress. The programme integrates outdoor learning and specialist subject instruction to create well-rounded educational experiences.
Forest School
Forest School sessions provide hands-on environmental education within our natural woodland setting. Children develop resilience and teamwork through activities like fire lighting, den building, and nature art. The programme follows seasonal changes and teaches safety awareness in outdoor environments. Our qualified instructors guide child-led learning experiences that build confidence and environmental stewardship.
After-School Clubs
Our after-school clubs offer extended learning opportunities through sports, music, and creative activities. Progressive Sports provides specialist coaching in football, laser tag, and archery. The childcare provision includes homework support and recreational activities until 5:30pm. We offer flexible booking options and financial assistance for eligible families through working tax credit subsidies.
Special Educational Needs
We provide tailored support for children with special educational needs through our dedicated SENDCo and trained teaching assistants. The programme includes individual learning plans, specialist resources, and multi-sensory teaching approaches. We maintain close communication with parents and external professionals to ensure comprehensive support for each child's unique requirements.
Educational Assessments
Our assessment system combines national standards with customised tracking methods to monitor academic progress. We use low-stakes testing to reinforce learning while reducing anxiety. The Symphony Assessment System evaluates foundation subjects through year-group specific criteria. Regular reporting keeps parents informed about their child's development across all curriculum areas.
