At Wilton Primary Academy, we are very proud of our family atmosphere and we strive not only to provide the highest quality of education, but also to help our 60 pupils aged 3 - 11 become happy, successful and fulfilled individuals. Our school serves a mixed catchment that can be geographically isolating and our context can be challenging as we serve a community that experiences some socio-economic deprivation. Approximately a third of the children are eligible for the pupil premium and we have a larger than average percentage of children who experience some kind of SEND need. Our excellent reputation in supporting pupils with additional needs means, as a small school, we have a greater proportion of children with complex needs due to our inclusive and personalised approach.
We are fully committed to developing each child's unique potential within a secure and caring environment. We believe that our children should not only realise their best academically, but also develop a thirst for knowledge and a love of learning. Our children have excellent learning behaviours, are eager to learn and are supported by a team of hard-working, talented and dedicated staff. The children of Wilton Primary are happy learners, who work hard to reach the challenges set by their teachers.
We aim to provide a curriculum, which inspires and challenges all learners, promotes a love of learning and enables the development of life skills in preparation for experiences beyond primary school. At the heart of our curriculum is the requirement that pupils have to apply their learning in a number of contexts, which makes learning active and authentic.
The curriculum focus, is to develop pupils’ knowledge, skills and understanding, so that they leave Wilton Primary with skills to take them onto secondary education and beyond with a view to their working life.
In 2018, we joined the team at Tees Valley Education, a Trust that has been operating since September 2015. We work very closely with our partner academies, Brambles, Discovery, Pennyman and Dormanstown. This gives us the opportunity to develop best practice and deliver improved outcomes for our children. It also allows us to ensure that all our staff receive high quality CPD to support them to achieving their professional goals.
The vision for Wilton is rightly ambitious and the recent changes are exciting and provide new opportunities and direction for our school community. Our pupils, staff, parents, TVED colleagues and wider community are all committed to our journey to success.
