Regis Manor Primary School is three form entry primary school based in the Milton Regis area of Swale on a large site with extensive playing fields and play areas. The school itself is housed over two buildings.
The school’s ultimate aim is to ensure that all children leave well prepared for secondary school – this agenda is addressed by prioritising both well-being and learning. All children are taught phonics through the Read Write Inc. scheme and additional investments have been made in high quality guided reading, writing and numeracy resources. In addition, there is a range of extra-curricular activities and a variety of opportunities to develop a broad and enriching learning experience for all pupils.
High expectations are made of all pupils to achieve and attain the very best outcomes and visitors to the school often comment on its focused yet enjoyable learning environment. Strong community links and a supportive parent / carer body contribute to the school’s journey to provide an outstanding provision for all.
Regis Manor was judged “good” at our last Ofsted inspection in July 2023 and the school continues to improve and develop.
