Our school was built in 1975 in the grounds of a Victorian House which was demolished prior to the school being built. The grounds are particularly beautiful with many rare and interesting shrubs and trees, and these surround the building which, because of the nature of the ground, is split level. Consequently there is a constant awareness of the seasons and the beauty of our surroundings.

The school admits two classes a year to form a year group. There are four year groups. The two classes within a year group work closely together as a team ensuring a common approach, method, content and continuity between year groups.

In April 2018, the school became a part of The Alliance Multi-Academy Trust (TAMAT). TAMAT is a small trust that includes Crawley Ridge Infant School, Connaught Junior School, Holy Trinity Primary School and Windlesham Village Infant School.

I respect, I am positive, I belong.

I respect - I care for myself, others and our environment

I am positive - I try my best in all aspects of learning and school life

I belong - I am a valued part of the team

Ethos

Crawley Ridge junior School endeavours to provide a school day which excites, challenges and motivates each individual child. Teachers consider ways of organising children’s learning, which promote excellence, perseverance, resilience, self-discipline and independent learning in classrooms. Children are purposefully engaged in a variety of carefully planned activities to meet clear and shared learning intentions, which are aimed at motivating, encouraging and challenging every child. Individuals are valued, mutual respect is evident, teamwork is celebrated and there is a culture of learning for all within a caring environment.

Our school believes that each child should have the opportunity to develop their capabilities to the full. We believe that this is achieved by developing and nurturing the whole child and that all aspects of development should be valued and acknowledged by our community. 

Vision

Our vision is to be a truly exceptional school: excellence every day for every individual.
