Goosewell Primary Academy - Welcome
Home Our School Welcome Welcome Goosewell Primary Academy is a lively and vibrant school where children are enthusiastic and motivated to achieve endless possibilities. The children are at the heart of every decision we make to ensure that they are happy, confident and that the opportunities provided for them, are relevant to their needs both now and in their futures. At Goosewell, we believe that children should be curious about the world around them. Through our engaging curriculum, we ensure that children can foster a passion for learning that will help to develop high aspirations and a lifetime of memories. We believe in ensuring that children receive a well-rounded curriculum; where individual talents can be spotted and nurtured to ensure that all children experience success and reach their full potential. We believe that providing opportunities for children to develop characteristics for effective learning and life should be at the heart of everything we do. The school has an experienced and dedicated team that strives to reach high standards in everything we do, and this becomes further embedded through our successful relationships with parents, the local community, and the other schools in the Reach South Academy Trust. We firmly believe that education is a partnership between home and school, creating a learning family where we value you as an active partner in your child's education offering vital interest and support. I hope that our website will provide you with useful information about our school, the staff, and the many activities that our children enjoy through our curriculum and our extra-curricular activities. The website will develop over time as we add more information but can never replace the first-hand experience of coming to visit us. I am thrilled to be the Headteacher of this school, and look forward to meeting you and your families, as you become part of ours.
