Welcome to Kingsway Infant School and thank you for your interest. I am proud to be the Headteacher of a caring and nurturing school where learning is fun. We are committed to providing the best possible education for our children and believe that all children should have the opportunity to achieve through a broad and balanced curriculum.
Our dedicated and caring staff team work hard to make sure that every lesson is creative, challenging and meets the needs of the children effectively. By personalising the curriculum for our children, we help to give them the best start to their education and prepare them for their future.
We also believe in working closely with parents to support their child's learning journey and welcome feedback and questions.
As well as making learning fun and engaging, we provide opportunities for pupils to have leadership responsibilities (such as play buddies, class jobs and school council), perform on the stage in our class assemblies and shows and feed our school guinea pigs. Consequently, this helps to develop the child's confidence, independence and build respectful relationships.
