We would like to welcome our pupils and families to Leas Park Junior School and look forward to sharing the coming years with you and your children. Our aim is to provide a happy environment where children can flourish, engage with learning alongside a healthy, happy, respect for themselves and the whole school community.
Where they can develop confidence in both their work and in their relationships with others. Our belief is that children come to school to work hard within the broad and balanced curriculum that we provide. We expect high standards from our children, in their work, in their games and in their behaviour.
We expect that everyone will work together- parents, children, teachers and governors- and place great importance on the shared responsibility to ensure that each child is encouraged to reach his or her full potential during their time at Leas Park.
