Teaching Primary

Within the Lower School we aim to instil a passion for learning. Our youngest children bounce into the School with enthusiasm, curiosity and thirst for knowledge.

The Lower School is designed to ensure that our youngest pupils get off to an excellent start in life. We are committed to enabling all children to read early and develop the confidence and characteristics that will help them overcome any challenges that come their way. Alongside reading, we focus on language and vocabulary development from an early age.

Physical development and movement are vital skills the children will learn from the very beginning of their education. The foundations for their ongoing learning in all areas are developed in the Lower School.

"Excellence is a journey, not a destination and I am delighted to be on this journey with our Lower School pupils having lots of fun on the way."
Head of Lower

Three School model:

We are one Academy, made up of three Schools. The smaller Schools ensure that every pupil is known by all staff within their school, and offers a model which provides support and continuity across all of the key transitions. Most staff will work within our mini-school structure of Lower, Middle and Upper Schools, guided by a supportive extended Senior Leadership Team and Faculty Directors overseeing Heads of Subjects.

• LOWER SCHOOL: Nursery to Year 4

• MIDDLE SCHOOL: Year 5 to Year 9

• UPPER SCHOOL: Year 10 to Year 13
