By growing slowly but steadily, we are able to give every one of our 330 children a great deal of personal attention. We have a superb team of teachers and support staff, all of whom are experts in primary education.
As well as focusing on helping our pupils become confident readers, writers and mathematicians, we also ensure that, as our pupils progress through the school there are a range of music, drama and sporting opportunities for them to experience. Our vision and values are fully described and shared on the link page in this section and I would urge you to read this.
We are proud to be part of a vibrant and supportive international community and are keen that parents and families play an active part in our school life.
Our building is smart and modern, and we are fortunate enough to have a lovely playground and excellent equipment and facilities.
In April 2017, Ofsted judged our academy to be Good, reflecting the commitment that everyone in our community has to ensure that every child fulfills their potential.
We have developed a set of Values and ‘Habits of the Mind’ which are embedded in all aspects of our school culture.
We believe that our values must become habitual if children are to be effective citizens and workers in 21st Century. They must be able to communicate, to collaborate in teams, to continuously learn and to function in a data-rich society.
We aim to develop a school community who can:
• Build healthy relationships by becoming
respectful individuals.
• Succeed living in the wider world be becoming
responsible citizens.
• Experience positive physical health & wellbeing
by becoming resilient learners.
We will do this by integrating our Habits of the Mind throughout our school culture.
We will learn how to be:
Respectful individual
Listen & Understand, Collaborate & Think
Responsible Citizen
Question & Reason, Support & Challenge
Resilient learner
Focus & Sustain, Review & Repeat
This will provide a roadmap for individuals, for classrooms and throughout our curriculum, pedagogy and professional development.
