Our pupils have created these wonderful pictures to demonstrate the four school values; kind , curious , respectful and resilient . At West Witney Primary School and Nursery, we envision a vibrant, safe and inclusive learning environment that ignites the curiosity and passion for learning in every child.
Our commitment is to nurture a community of children that are respectful, resilient and kind individuals. Children's unique abilities are nurtured and all are encouraged to go far beyond their potential. We have open minded, supportive and enthusiastic children that relish a challenge and continuously look to improve.
Time is taken to understand behaviour and all staff members of West Witney build strong relationships that are founded in trust. Children learn in a kind and caring environment. Teaching pedagogy is informed by research and evidence so that children receive the highest quality education that is adapted to their needs.
Teachers are constantly re-thinking and questioning their teaching and learning so that every child is provided a challenging and thought through learning experience.
