At Springfield Primary Academy we have high expectations of all pupils. Our curriculum is designed to recognise the children's prior learning; create memorable learning experiences; build resilience and become creative, critical thinkers whilst providing opportunities to develop personal integrity and respect for all. Every child is recognised as a unique individual.
We celebrate and welcome differences within our school community. The ability to learn is underpinned by the teaching of basic skills, knowledge, concepts and values. Our curriculum is enriched by educational trips and visitors to the school in order to engage pupils in their learning.
We believe that childhood should be a happy, investigative and enquiring time in our lives, with no limits to curiosity and thirst for new experiences or knowledge. We promote positive attitudes to learning reflecting the values and skills needed to develop lifelong learners.
We embrace opportunities to engage with the local community, inviting them to take an active part in events throughout the academic year. Our aim is to nurture the talents and interests of the children and develop personal skills around integrity, respect and resilience that will allow them to become valuable citizens of the local and wider community.
