About Us

Chester Park Infant School is a 3 form entry infant school serving the community of Chester Park in Fishponds; this is a busy school with lots going on. 

We encourage and support every child to work hard, to enjoy and learn through a rich curriculum and very importantly to make lots of friends so that during their time at school they become: 

Positive, Resilient, Meaningful

We pride ourselves on creating a safe, caring environment where children can learn to take risks in their learning. We work very closely with parents and carers to create a strong partnership between home and school.

Our curriculum is designed very much with the diverse cultural  context of our school in mind.  There is a strong emphasis on drawing on Bristol heritage (eg. Isambard Kingdom Brunel) and community links (eg. dental practice, school crossing patrols, supporting the Julian Trust) wherever possible when devising projects.

Our Vision and Values

 

  • To develop a joy and enthusiasm for learning.
  • To build each child’s confidence and self esteem.
  • To create an environment of trust, security and inclusion, which allows learning to take place through play, discovery, choice, decision making and the freedom to learn from mistakes.
  • To provide a safe, challenging, stimulating environment which is sensitive to the needs and background of the child.
  • To encourage each child’s curiosity, motivation and independence.
  • To value individual effort and achievement.
  • To assess individual needs and help the child to progress.
  • To value and welcome parents/carers contributions and promote strong home/school links.
  • To provide a broad, balanced and relevant curriculum adapted to the individual’s needs.
  • To create a caring community which encourages respect and consideration for all people and their property.
