About

At Netherton J&I School we are determined to create an inclusive culture of learning where all children will be challenged in their thinking, strive for continuous improvement and be motivated to become lifelong learners.

We will empower our children to become respected citizens to enable them to make valuable contributions locally, globally and to contribute to their sustainable future.

To achieve our vision we aim to ensure: • All children become enthusiastic, independent, life-long learners who achieve their full potential; • That children have a strong sense of self-worth and mutual respect and are able to lead safe, healthy and fulfilling lives; • Children develop a sense of responsibility and contribute as caring citizens in a rich and diverse society; • That a positive partnership is fostered between the school, its parents and the wider community; • Our children experience a rich and purposeful curriculum which allows them to develop knowledge and skills in every subject.
