Geoffrey Field Junior School

“All Learning Together”

At Geoffrey Field Junior School, we believe that all children learn best together in a positive and caring environment. An environment where they can feel safe, listened to, valued and treated with respect. 

Our school motto is “all learning together”. We have an ambitious, inclusive and individualised curriculum that meets the needs of all our pupils and that provides challenges for all children at a level that is appropriate for them. Our expectations are high and an emphasis is placed on pupils becoming confident and fluent in the foundational skills of Maths, English and oracy as well as the wider curriculum offered. We promote a growth mindset and model that everyone is constantly learning. Our mistakes are encouraged and shared as these are our opportunities to reflect and learn.  

Every child is different and every child has the right to feel heard. Therefore, we prioritise the choices and opportunities we offer our pupils, helping to foster their interests beyond the curriculum. Our programme of school clubs, pupil groups and enriching curriculum experiences inspire, develop and empower our pupils.  We aim to provide opportunities in which everyone can excel and feel success

Our school is a vital step for all pupils in becoming successful and fulfilled members of our community.  We are not only preparing them for their next school but for adulthood and life in the wider world beyond education. We want our children to be independent and confident life-long learners who can make responsible choices and take full advantage of the opportunities that life offers them both now and in the future. We are proud to be part of our Whitley community and this is encouraged in our localised curriculum. 

To support our children in becoming confident citizens, our teaching and learning is underpinned by our five core values of kindness, responsibility, honesty, resilience and respect. These values are interwoven throughout our entire curriculum and you will see any member of our community modelling them daily when you are in school. Everyone is expected to demonstrate these values in their learning and social interactions with any peers, parents or staff.

It is a great privilege to be the Headteacher here and to work with these amazing young people. Ifyou have any questions at all, please do not hesitate to get in touch.
