A major strength of our school is our commitment to maximise chances, experiences and opportunities. Children are in their element when they are presented with new experiences and we always aim to educate beyond as well as in the classroom. We try to provide our children with vibrant and meaningful learning experiences through a range of visits and visitors into school. We know that each child has different interests and skills and therefore we aim to meet their needs through a wide range of curricular and extra curricular activities. This helps to promote inclusion and to inspire each child in a lively and exciting environment within a climate of high expectations and care.
At Bowes Hutchinson’s School, we continuously strive to find ways to improve and develop. We strongly believe that we must deliver not only inspiring curriculum but one that is fit for today’s pupils and will also be fit for tomorrow. We cannot predict the future but we can help shape it. We develop the whole child both academically and socially. It is our aim that children should feel safe, secure, healthy and successful. We want learning to be enjoyable and to encourage the children to look forward to the future by providing them with the best real-life experiences.
Children are helped to become confident, enthusiastic learners engaging in exciting, collaborative, independent activities. They develop a responsibility for making choices and decisions that stimulate their curiosity to explore and enjoy acquiring new skills and knowledge. By knowing our pupils well, children of all abilities are helped to achieve to the very best of their potential in all aspects of the curriculum.
