Ethos & Values

"REACH BELIEVE EXPLORE ACHIEVE"

A curriculum that has a variety of learning opportunities that promotes a desire to learn through exciting content, that interlinks but blends into one experience. A wholesome curriculum that drives equality, respect and positive citizenship. Children who enjoy their time together, have lots of enjoyable games to play and have a deep understanding of how to co-operate because they are equipped with a range of positive social skills to feel safe and happy at all times. Children learn challenging ideas and concepts with consistent quality support, guidance and a range of high quality, purposeful resources. Everyone has access to inspirational quality real books alongside innovative technologies that spark the imagination and world of curiosity. We recognise the importance of early foundations and how much the children already know when they enter Moorpark. Their learning is intertwined through exciting experiences and is always growing and forever changing as they continue to develop in growth, their learning is everywhere. Parental engagement is a priority, we believe support and communication is key to successful learning. All adults in school have an open door policy for all parents.
