Rainwater is harvested to ensure that natural resources are used economically and the airy design of our school, with its spacious atrium, helps promote a calm, purposeful learning environment in which children excel in their learning.
Our school grounds provide stimulus, shade, and opportunities for children to use their imagination and in play. There is space for every class to have its allotment to grow fruit and vegetables, encouraging and inspiring outdoor learning.
We strongly encourage you to come and visit our school and share what makes our school special. Green End is part of Kingsway Community Trust, which also consists of Cringle Brook Primary in Levenshulme and Ladybarn Primary in Withington, both of which are also Ofsted Graded Outstanding. As part of the Trust, Green End benefits from strong links with these two schools.
The curriculum we provide at Green End is tailor-made to give all children a thirst for learning, a motivated engagement in school, and the best chance to attain high academic success. There is a strong emphasis on developing confidence and skills to be excellent communicators in all situations. Our school has a very strong sense of community, with nurture and strong relationships at its core.
Manchester Local Authority (LA) deals with admissions for Reception places. If the school receives more applications than there are places available, priority is given to the siblings of children already attending Green End Primary School and then to children for whom the LA agrees there are exceptional reasons for admission. Any remaining places are allocated according to the proximity of the child’s home address to the school. Full details of admission procedures are provided in the Primary School Admission booklet. This is sent to parents/carers in the Autumn before their child is due to start in Reception the following September. Places are given without prejudice. The school has an Accessibility Plan to ensure that pupils with disabilities or special educational needs are not treated less favorably than others.
Application forms are available from the school office directly. If you require support in completing the application form or have questions about the process, please call the school. We can offer support in a range of languages as well as access to computers and the internet to complete the form online.
Our curriculum is created based on capturing children’s interest and imagination through all subjects. It draws on relevant learning experiences and involves a significant level of first-hand experiences for all children. The learning will challenge all children across the breadth of academic areas.
There is a strong emphasis on the basic skills of reading, writing, and mathematics. Both the basic skills curriculum and the wider learning opportunities and experiences are individually designed by our staff for our school and our children. This ensures that the children are highly motivated and inspired by a tailor-made curriculum that fully meets their learning needs. A focus on first-hand experiences ensures that children can move from the concrete to the abstract in their learning, applying skills and learning to different challenges. The children will develop excellent communication skills which will enhance their learning in Literacy and also lead to them becoming confident and articulate 11-year-olds, able to speak confidently in a range of formal situations.
Green End Primary is an inclusive school and welcomes all children. We aim to respond effectively to their individual needs and children with special educational needs are given full access to our curriculum. This is achieved by differentiating activities, providing additional support, and using specialist equipment where necessary. We ask parents/carers to give us as much information as possible if their child has special educational needs so that we can explore with them and other key professionals how we can make the most effective provision in school. Special educational needs include children who have particular gifts and talents and perhaps need extra opportunities to provide them with a high level of challenge.
We offer support to all pupils according to their needs. At times, pupils may need a program of additional support to ensure that they develop in all areas of their learning, including social, emotional, and physical development. Our Inclusion Manager is our Special Educational Needs Coordinator (SENCo) and oversees the learning support offered across the school. Teaching Assistants to work with all pupils in class, including supporting programs for the development of gross and fine motor skills, phonic support, listening and social skills as well as supporting English and maths skills.
The SENCo works closely with families in times of need, as well as a range of outside agencies such as the Educational Psychologist, Speech and Language Therapist, School Nurse, and Outreach workers.
