Rimon is an exciting single form entry, inclusive, modern orthodox Jewish Primary school now in its sixth year (having opened in September 2012) with classes from Reception - Y5 all enjoying our new building. At Rimon, we believe in nurturing all our children to develop to the best of their abilities. We are proud to be part of each child's journey, assisting them to become knowledgeable, skilled, confident, and responsible members of our local and wider community. We believe that all Rimon graduates should understand their obligation to make positive contributions to their families, friends, and communities as well to general society as British citizens. We offer a value-based curriculum at Rimon where children's secular (National Curriculum) and Jewish Studies are integrally linked to Modern Orthodox Jewish practice, learning right and wrong, commitment and responsibility, faith and loyalty, tolerance and diversity as well as a rigorous pursuit of all-round excellence and worldly knowledge. Our school motto of Wisdom, Knowledge, and Joy means that our staff is dedicated and fully committed to ensuring that all children at Rimon are happy and well educated young people, equipped with the skills and thirst for learning to continue their secular and Jewish studies within, beyond and outside of school. That makes us exceptionally proud of them. We believe children can only develop their full potential both academically and creatively if they have mastered the basic skills of literacy, numeracy, and communication. The curriculum and staff structure will be developed to ensure that the school’s academic results compete with the best available internationally. The Jewish educational, historical and cultural experience provides a model that has underpinned societies all over the world for generations. That model is based firmly on tradition and belief, while still embracing a global perspective and celebrating cultural diversity. Judaism is a religion built on the deep study and understanding of texts. Rimon is committed to ensuring that children are equipped with the tools required to feel comfortable and interested in the world of Torah Judaism. Judaism teaches that the world was entrusted to man by God and that we have a responsibility to take care of it and ensure it is not exploited to the detriment of future generations. Rimon is committed to ingraining these values in all children and staff All children, regardless of ability, have the right to make progress and achieve their potential. We believe that wherever possible children with special education needs should have those needs met in a mainstream classroom and that having those children in the classroom benefits all the children in the class. Our provision for children with special educational needs will ensure that Rimon plays an active part in helping children achieve their potential across the spectrum of ability. We aim for Rimon pupils to have a more personalized learning experience and for the school to model good SEN practice in every class. View full school
