Ethos & Values

"Where the roots are deep, there is no need to fear the wind. From seedlings to saplings, standing tall and proud."

I am ready I am respectful I am safe I am independent I am individual I am inquisitive

Religious Education is broadly Christian in content though use is made of examples of accepted morality from other sources according to the Halton recommended syllabus. There is a Christian element in morning assemblies. Arrangements can be made with the Headteacher if parents wish to withdraw their children from religious education or related activities. Alternative provision by the pupil’s class teacher will be made for any children who are withdrawn.

Head Teacher's Message

Miss Pope, Headteacher, introduces herself with pride in Westfield Primary School and a commitment to providing a high-quality education, with the aim that every child leaves with knowledge, skills and personal attributes to succeed, and a focus on daily spark moments and a caring community.
