iWritten by WhatSchool from official school data (Get Information about Schools, DfE and Ofsted).I am delighted to warmly welcome you to the Greatfield Park Primary School website. We are incredibly proud of the children, staff and adults that make our school community. We believe in the potential for every individual to make exceptional progress from their starting points and want all children to thoroughly enjoy their time at our school.
The wellbeing and needs of every child are fundamental to our provision. Our school vision - 'Learning and Thriving together to achieve our DREAMS' is at the heart of everything we do. We want our children to be determined, respectful, excellent, aspirational, mindful and supportive. You can read more about our vision and values here .
We provide a broad, rich and ambitious curriculum which teaches what matters to our children-so that they know more, remember more and can apply the skills and knowledge they develop. Our high expectations give our children every opportunity to become confident and independent learners, with a pride in their achievement.
We are aspirational and inclusive and provide support and challenge for all.
