Prospectus information

Greenwood Primary is a school where children develop the qualities of responsibility, self-confidence and care for others. We aim to provide the children with the skills, qualities and attitudes which enable them to succeed. We offer all children a broad, balanced, relevant and differentiated curriculum. ‘The breadth and richness of the curriculum is just what children should experience to foster all round development.’ (Ofsted 2002)

Ethos and values
At Greenwood we provide a happy and industrious atmosphere where all children are encouraged to achieve their potential by stimulating their enthusiasm for learning, and a determination to succeed. ‘Standards are high and pupils achieve very well in their learning: teaching is of a very high quality and there is very good provision for the children in the nursery and reception classes.’ (Ofsted 2002)

Summary of special educational needs policy
Children with special educational needs are identified early to ensure they succeed. They are fully included in all aspects of school life through the use of differentiated learning and the provision of additional support. ‘Very good provision for pupils with SEN whose performance is noteworthy in national tests, learning is very well monitored, difficulties detected early and effective use is made of support staff.’ (Ofsted 2002)
