We have a dedicated team of staff all with the same aim - to provide the very best education and experiences for your child during their primary years.
We want each and everyone of our children to reach their full potential and we make sure every day helps their learning journey. Every child is special and unique and we celebrate our diverse population, knowing we are creating positive citizens for our future world. We want to give our children Every Chance to succeed Every Day.
At Berkeley Primary we are working hard to achieve the School of Sanctuary Award which recognises the diversity and welcoming environment we are so proud of. Please visit our School of Sanctuary page to see what this looks like at our school. We never lose sight of the importance of basic skills in English and Maths. We also see oracy development as a priority.
We want our children to become confident and competent communicators and to be able to use these skills in all areas of the curriculum. Children will become 'future ready' by learning to express and articulate their own views, as well as listen sensitively and respectfully to the views of others.
