Manley Park Primary School
WELCOME
It is a pleasure to welcome you to our school website. Manley Park Primary School is a community I am incredibly proud of and grateful to belong to. This is a place where everyone supports each other by exemplifying our values: compassion, responsibility, respect, patience, positivity and understanding.
As headteacher, I am supported by a team whose dedication, energy and talent are inspiring. Together, we aim to provide an education and environment which supports and enriches the lives of all our pupils. Our relationships are based on mutual respect, and we believe that our pupils have much to offer the leadership of the school.
OUR VISION
Together, we are committed to all learners being inspired to achieve academic success. We provide learning experiences that are relevant, motivational and challenging. Our curriculum and collaborative learning approaches nurture personal growth. Pupils become socially responsible citizens of our community and the world.
Our Half term themes
We believe that our curriculum must prepare pupils for a life in modern Britain and subsequently become socially responsible local and global citizens. We want to help our pupils to develop an awareness of themselves and the positive impact they can have. This is made possible through our curriculum themes and emotional intelligence values.
