Welcome from our Executive Head Teacher

Welcome to High View

Dear Parents, Carers and Pupils 

As part of the Learning Academies Trust, High View School is a friendly, caring and welcoming school, placing children's learning, happiness, well-being and safety at the heart of all we do.  We want all of our children to feel safe, well supported and achieve well, no matter what challenges they may face.  Our aim is to make learning at High View interesting and exciting, with an ethos rooted in mutual respect, kindness and tolerance. We want our staff and pupils to come to school with a positive attitude, where they are kind to one another, eager to learn and have pride and aspirations around what they can accomplish as individuals and as a community, both academically and socially.  

Our school values: Be curious, Be happy, Be confident, Be kind and Be tolerant are interwoven throughout the whole school curriculum and form the core of our school ethos.  During their time with us, children will develop their curiosity in the world around them, confidence to take on challenges and a voice that is heard. Our focus on oracy is fundamental to this, and provides opportunities to reflect upon and challenge ideas, ask questions and build on the thoughts and opinions of others.  Creativity and the arts are also embedded across our school, and this can be seen as soon as you walk through the door and enter our inspirational learning environment. 

Our website is your first opportunity to find out lots of information about our school but, we would love you to visit us if you are thinking of choosing our school for your child's setting, to experience the school environment and ethos for yourselves. You will be welcomed by our team, and we will be very proud to give you a tour and provide you with an opportunity to see, first- hand, the experiences that our children have at High View Primary school. Simply contact our school office to make an appointment. 

Furthermore, at High View, we constantly strive to improve what we do in order to provide your children with the opportunity and means to be the best they can be. Therefore, we listen carefully to the opinions of children, parents, staff, Governors, partner schools and agencies, and these partnerships consistently help us to ensure that we always continue to reflect and refine on what we do to help make High View a great school to be in…as good beginnings never end! 

Kind regards,
