At Knowleswood Primary we believe that everyone should have a clear idea of what we are trying to achieve for our children.

We encourage children to immerse themselves in learning opportunities that inspire them. We are passionate about nurturing children’s aspiration, independence, determination, creativity and collaboration – we encourage children to take risks in their learning. Knowleswood learners are equipped for success; we’re learning, to make a difference.  

Learning without limits

Aims 

Our learners will make a difference by:  

• Aspiring to make the world the best it can be by being their best  

• Having the confidence and self-belief to risk making mistakes   

• Knowing when and how to work with others, but having the initiative to work alone  

• Demonstrating humility and compassion; understanding the value of others and the value of happiness and being mindful  

• Having the skills, knowledge and disposition to design and realise our future

'KIDS GROW'

 

We focus on the first four of our values in Early Years and Key Stage 1, introducing and developing the second four as we master kindness, safety and self-management in Year 2. We expect to see growing mastery of our values through Key Stage 2
