Welcome to Thames View Primary School

It gives me great pleasure to write to you as the Head of School at Thames View Primary School. Thames View, which is part of the well- respected Howard Academy Trust (THAT), has some real strengths, namely the wonderful cohort of children, an excellent staff team and fantastic school grounds, all of which we intend to make the most of during the coming year. We are a two-form entry school, and with our Nursery, educate 480 children in a friendly and caring environment. At Thames View Primary School, staff are committed to providing an education that enables all pupils to realise their dreams, goals and ambitions. We work in partnership with colleagues, parents and the community, so that pupils achieve academic success and experience personal well-being within a caring and safe environment. We motivate and engage children by delivering a rich and broad curriculum that inspires our pupils to become life-long and responsible learners.

We promote our values of respect, honesty, friendship, perseverance, responsibility and equality throughout all we do, so that our pupils are ready to take their place in a constantly changing world. If you would like to learn more about Thames View than can be seen in this prospectus and on our website, please e-mail or call the office to arrange a visit. We would love to show you round.

Our Ethos

and Values

Our vision and values are at the core of everything we do. They underpin our teaching and learning, and provide an environment which prepares our pupils as confident, happy citizens. Our school ethos is based on the celebration of the principles of our Mission Statement.

Our school values are:

honesty respect

perseverance responsibility equality

friendship

Children and staff are encouraged to take responsibility for their own learning. We want to promote lifelong learning throughout the school community including children, staff, governors and parents. There is a responsibility by all to promote a positive approach to behaviour management and the following of the School Rules. Children are encouraged to take responsibility for their own actions through discussion, such as at Circle Time, where they have the opportunity to discuss their concerns and worries, as well as celebrate their successes. Children are given a voice in order to contribute to the decisions made in the schools, through the School Council, as part of surveys and they are actively encouraged to voice their opinions as individuals.

Our

Curriculum

At Thames View Primary School our intention is to ensure our children experience a curriculum that has reading, enquiry, vocabulary and knowledge at the heart of their learning. We provide a rich curriculum that enables pupils to see the world from a wide range of perspectives. The curriculum provides enriched opportunities for children to delve deeper into their learning, building on skills progressively each year, and responds to findings from pupil feedback and school >Page 1 Page 2 Page 3 Page 4 Page 5 Page 6 Page 7 Page 8 Page 9 Page 10 Page 11 Page 12 Page 13 Page 14 Page 15 Page 16
