Stoneydown Park School

[EduCativ]

At Stoneydown, we are determined that all our children will make excellent progress in developing the skills, knowledge, understanding, and attitudes needed for high-quality learning. We believe that we all learn best when we work together and when lessons are creative and fun. We have devised a curriculum map that is built on a 2-year cycle enabling classes to work together on half-termly topics.

This statement summarises the values, aims, and objectives that Stoneydown’s curriculum seeks to embody. We also recognize that the curriculum experienced by the children does not just include the planned curriculum, but involves the so-called ‘hidden curriculum’ of relationships, ethos, informal learning, and learning outside school hours. Park Primary School and our vibrant community of learners. We are a happy, growing school, at the heart of the community, expanding to become a fully 3-form entry by 2020. We have two sites, a short hop away from each other, across Pretoria Avenue but we are very much one school.

Stoneydown is an open and welcoming school. Our pupils, staff, parents, and governors all play an integral part in shaping our present and future we value learning from each other and enjoy celebrating our pupils’ achievements. Working together, we have an uncompromising commitment to ensuring all our pupils receive an excellent, rounded education through an enriched and creative curriculum. Our committed and caring staff work enthusiastically to ensure all children thrive and have the tools to succeed. We know that children achieve best when they are engaged, challenged, and see purpose in their learning.
