Manor Primary School

[EduCativ]

Manor Primary School & Nursery is a happy, safe, and inspiring community school with the highest expectations and aspirations for all of our pupils. Dedicated teaching and support staff enable every child to excel and explore their passions through broad, balanced, and rich learning opportunities. Our traditional Victorian school building provides a 21st Century education equipping our pupils with the skills and attributes required to become lifelong learners.
Manor School is a very happy, caring, and supportive school. We have a great team of teachers and support staff that work hard to ensure that all the children make good progress. Our aim is that every child reaches their potential, and is well-equipped when they leave Manor and can continue achieving throughout secondary school. We are forward-thinking and provide a curriculum that is both stimulating and challenging.
We believe in Community, Determination, Excellence, Responsibility, and Respect. These are our five core values that are at the heart of everything we do at Manor. We believe that close cooperation between home and school is essential, and aim to keep parents as informed as possible about the progress their children are making, the methods we use to teach the children, and ways in which they can support their children’s learning. The manor is multi-cultural – 74% of our children speak English as an additional language, and 42 languages are spoken by staff and children. We value and celebrate the diversity of cultures and religious beliefs within the school.
We have high expectations of all our staff and pupils. The behavior of pupils is very good, and we focus a lot on developing each child’s ability to understand and improve their learning skills. We provide many opportunities for children to involve themselves in the wider life of the school, and to take responsibility for aspects of school life.
We have worked hard to make our 3 stories Victorian building and playground as welcoming as possible. The main entrance and the landscaping have helped this enormously.
Manor Primary School is a vibrant learning community where everyone is enthusiastic, motivated, and valued. We offer a warm welcome to all in a secure, nurturing environment that is both creative and stimulating. We develop enthusiastic learners, who are independent and creative thinkers with open, enquiring minds. Our children are motivated, confident, and responsible learners and citizens.
Learning takes place in a wide range of ways at Manor, both in and out of the classroom. As a state-maintained primary school, we follow the National Curriculum as a basis for our children’s learning. The children frequently go on educational visits to a wide range of places they regularly visit art galleries we have visitors, such as authors, theatre companies, professionals, to school provide an additional layer to the children’s experiences. All these give the children a breadth to their learning that you cannot provide purely in a classroom.
Our curriculum provides practical approaches and direct experiences. Children are encouraged and taught to talk about and share ideas to develop their language and thinking. To reinforce and develop these skills, in-class the children have opportunities to debate, role play, and give presentations. A very important part of the children’s learning is investigating and problem-solving, designing and making things, researching and finding out, as well as learning to use the wide range of ICT that is available to them.
