Ethos & Values

"Imagine Believe Achieve"

We value everyone as individuals and allow them to flourish, succeed and shine. That our children remain curious and are in awe of the wonders of the world around us. That learning is stimulating, motivating and purposeful. To enable our children to become responsible, enthusiastic learners; eager to learn throughout their lives. That our children are encouraged to be resilient in the face of challenge. That our children are empowered to think, reason and make decisions. To allow children time to reflect in order to understand themselves and others. To prepare our children to be good citizens who show respect for all. To have high expectations of behaviour and good manners, so our school is a safe, happy place.

Head Teacher's Message

Welcome from Headteacher Miss D Budden: Springdale First School places children at the heart of everything it does and aims to foster a love of learning, help children become confident, safe, and responsible citizens, and Imagine, Believe, Achieve the best lesson, day, year, and future.

Curriculum Highlights

Incorporates the statutory requirements of the National Curriculum 2014 and other experiences and opportunities which best meet the learning and developmental needs of the pupils in our school. The curriculum is designed to provide all our students with the core knowledge that is the foundation of this success. The curriculum aims to maximise cognitive development, develop the whole person and the talents of the individual, so that Springdale First School children have high aspirations and believe that they can achieve their dreams. The curriculum teaches children how to think, how to criticise, and how to be active rather than passive recipients of information; but each of these concepts are taught within the context of the rich knowledge and skills each subject provides. Within each block of time, children will be able to build on previous concepts, knowledge and skills to enable them to learn about significant people, key influences, and gain a coherent understanding of Britain’s past and that of the wider world. Children will be able to transfer key skills taught across many subjects, enabling them to further strengthen their understanding in all areas of the curriculum. Pupils have opportunities to share their learning with each other, their parents and carers and other learners through school-based and external exhibitions, performances, competitions and events involving other schools. Developing their independence and motivation as learners and their sense of responsibility as future citizens is at the heart of all teaching and learning.
