Bradway Primary School is a vibrant, inclusive setting where strong, positive relationships lie at the heart of everything we do. It is our belief that schools, working in close partnership with families, have a responsibility to ensure every child fulfils their potential and can go on to achieve their ambitions, whatever they may be.
A high-quality education plays a crucial role in this. It is our commitment to make sure that every child who attends Bradway Primary School receives the very best education they can delivered by caring, nurturing and motivated staff who demonstrate and model a true passion for learning. Whilst this education must secure essential skills in reading, writing and maths, it must also go far beyond this, providing the enjoyment and awe and wonder that raises aspirations and nurtures growth across the curriculum. Our school motto that ‘Everyone is good at something’ recognises the importance of a broad and balanced curriculum that provides opportunities for everyone to experience success in a truly inclusive environment.
We also recognise the need to support children in developing their place within their communities, learning to understand others’ points of view, discussing challenging topics, disagreeing respectfully and being prepared to change their own minds. Philosophy for Children, a ‘golden thread’ that is embedded throughout our curriculum, supports the pursuit of these aims.
Set in an advantageous location with expansive outdoor space, our school offers unique opportunities for outdoor learning and play, encouraging curiosity, creativity, and a love for the natural world. Our grounds are a true asset and play a key role in our children’s development and wellbeing.
Of course, education goes far beyond the classroom which is why children who attend Bradway Primary School experience a host of other activities including after school clubs, visitors and multiple residential trips. Equally, our wonderful outdoor environment and forest school helps to develop play, creativity, resilience, problem solving and life-long memories and friendships.
