We are very proud of our school and work hard to ensure it is a vibrant learning community, where children develop a love of learning, are confident in trying new experiences and are curious, resilient and determined to do their best. Our inclusive ethos is firmly rooted in our belief in providing the best opportunities for all our pupils and we believe that a good education positively enhances a child’s life. We ensure all children are nurtured and challenged so that they are well prepared for each stage of their learning and for later life.

We highly value and celebrate the religious, linguistic and cultural diversity of our community. We truly believe families are central to the learning of our children and value parental input, support and ideas. We encourage parents to be part of their child’s learning and will help you to support your child in all aspects of their education, including at home. We run workshops to share how we teach the curriculum and send home regular information to ensure you know what your child is being taught.

We admit children full time from the age of 3 (nursery) to 11 years of age (year 6). We encourage visitors to view our wonderful school so if you would like to look round, please contact the school office to make an appointment. Many of our staff speak community languages and will be able to support if needed.

With warm wishes,

Mrs Wade

Headteacher

At Coleman Primary School we want all our pupils to ‘Be the Best that they Can Be’.

• We ensure that all children achieve their very best and foster high aspirations for themselves and their families. We recognise that every child in our school is unique and has their own interests, strengths and areas for development.

• We want all our pupils to achieve well academically but ensure they receive a broad education where they are given a chance to discover abilities in areas such as Science, Technology, The Arts, PE & Sport.

• We ensure every child will be nurtured and given their opportunity to shine, regardless of ability or circumstances. Mistakes are embraced as possibilities for new knowledge and understanding.

• Our families and community are celebrated and acknowledged as our key learning partners in empowering children and their relatives to be successful.

• Our core characteristics of learning: creativity, articulacy, resilience and respect ensure all of our children flourish.

• Our curriculum is designed to develop the whole child, with our curriculum aims threaded throughout each year. It has been designed to cover all of the skills, knowledge and understanding as set out in the National Curriculum and we enhance this by ensuring that learning relates to our locality and the heritage of our pupils. We enrich learning and build cultural capital through providing visits, visitors and experiences that expand the horizons of our pupils. We want pupils at Coleman to have memorable, lifelong learning experiences.

• Our school is very special: we have a learning environment to be proud of; amazing teachers and support staff; and as a result pupils are engaged, enthusiastic and proud of their school.
