At Highbury, we aim to provide a welcoming, nurturing and stimulating environment in which everyone feels secure and valued and develops to their full potential.

The total development and well-being of your child requires close co-operation between school and home. We place great importance on this partnership.

You are very welcome to make a visit when considering sending your child to our school.

We look forward to meeting you on many varied occasions and trust that should your child join us, they will spend a happy, productive and rewarding time at our school.

Mrs Helen Avey

Headteacher

 

"Children and pupils at Highbury are animated, inquisitive, kind and very well behaved. They develop these characteristics because teaching is interesting and adults themselves model fairness, kindness and good manners".                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       OFSTED 

Ethos and Values:

Our vision is for this school to be at the centre of the community, providing additional opportunities and facilities for children, their families and the wider community. It will be led by a skilled and well motivated staff, who along with the Governing Body, are forward thinking to facilitate change. It will provide an exciting, creative, learning environment, inclusive to all, which challenges individuals to achieve their full potential. It will give children the best possible start to school life, valuing their individuality and well-being and enabling them to become healthy, confident, caring and successful adults of the future.

Our aims:

  • To provide a caring, happy, stimulating environment in which children feel safe and secure
  • To motivate and encourage children to work to the best of their ability
  • To achieve the highest standards of which they are capable
