Lawefield is a friendly, welcoming school where children feel safe to learn, grow and succeed. They are proud of our thoughtful, well-rounded children and are committed to a holistic approach to learning where children are inspired to achieve their potential. They have recently developed their curriculum to ensure it is relevant to the needs of their children. Knowledge and vocabulary are at the heart of the curriculum and carefully sequenced so that learning is built upon term-by-term, year-by-year and, between topics across a variety of year groups. This enables pupils to gain and retain more knowledge and understanding through their whole school life in order for them to know more and remember more over time.
As well as wanting our children to succeed academically, they work hard towards the goal of all children being kind, respectful and responsible to everyone and the environment. They do this in a positive and supportive manner to encourage children to think for themselves and become independent learners. During their last inspection Ofsted recognised that” pupils’ behaviour and attitudes to learning are a strength of the school” and rated the pupils’ behaviour as outstanding.
They have a loyal, hard-working and caring staff who share the governors’ commitment to work to achieve the best for each of their children and the community. They are fortunate to serve a diverse community where they learn from each other and value and celebrate our differences.
Both schools have ambitions for growth to reach maximum capacity over the term of this contract.
