We believe that each child is a unique individual who needs a secure, caring and stimulating atmosphere in which to grow and mature emotionally, intellectually, physically and socially. To help children reach their fullest potential in these areas we provide an environment that is safe, supports risk-taking and invites the sharing of ideas.
Teachers at Bulwell St Mary’s are committed and dedicated to improving themselves and the children they teach. They create lessons that foster opportunities for individual discovery so that there is a passion developed for learning that is contagious and inspires success.
We are a Church of England school that focuses on a key value each half term. This allows our children to grow as individuals and interact positively with each other in all situations they encounter. The values are a way of life rather than a set of rules to be followed which allows our children to become respectful, thoughtful, content and HAPPY.
Community participation plays an important role in promoting our children’s learning. We provide many opportunities to involve parents and carers from an early age.
Parents and carers are welcomed in to school as volunteers they are also encouraged to join an active PTFA who work hard to provide enrichment opportunities for the children at Bulwell St Mary’s.
We look forward to supporting you along your journey.
