Potters Green is a school that has the children at the heart of everything we do, nurturing their bright futures.
We aim for children to not only receive a broad and balanced curriculum but one which motivates, inspires and engages them with their own learning. We want the children to enjoy their learning as well as be challenged by it.
Potters Green has a strong focus on ensuring that children are ready to learn emotionally and respecting that they learn in a variety of ways. To develop healthy, happy, confident children who are ready and open to learning we use the, 'Thrive Approach'.
We know how important parents are in this process too and we encourage them to be involved in their child's learning journey throughout their time at Potters Green and to be a valued part of school life.
Underpinning all that we do in school are the 3 Core Values:
Respect
Resilience
Responsibility
These core values are promoted at all times to enable the school to continue, 'Nurturing Bright Futures'.
