Metheringham Primary School - Home
Metheringham is a special and exciting learning community where children are enthusiastic and ready to achieve. Our wonderful children are at the heart of every decision we make to ensure that they are happy, resilient and confident, and that they are given the very best opportunities to enable them to thrive. We strive to create a safe, purposeful and fun learning environment where every child is able to achieve their potential. Our aim is for everyone in our school community to be lifelong learners and to be prepared for the next stage in their lives. Our five school valuesâ€â€honesty, kindness, courage, pride and curiosityâ€â€are at the core of everything we do. These values shape our behaviours, our relationships and our approach to learning. We encourage our pupils to be honest and reflective, to show kindness and empathy to others, to face challenges with courage, to take pride in their achievements, and to stay curious about the world around them. Our pupils and staff have developed and are very proud of our broad and balanced curriculum. We provide learning experiences that inspire pupils, so they can believe and achieve with all the skills and knowledge needed to be a twenty-first century citizen and also create a lifetime of memories. Team Green are caring, dedicated and incredibly talented! We do everything in our power to build effective and supportive relationships with your child. Creating secure relationships and nurturing pupils is at the heart of what we do at Metheringham. We know our pupils and families well and work in partnership to overcome challenges and encourage progress. You will see pupils at Metheringham who are respectful, have good manners, are good citizens and have a love of learning. This is further embedded through our successful relationships with parents and the local community. We firmly believe that education is a partnership between home and school and regard you as an active partner in your child's education and value your interest and support. I hope that this website will give you as much information as possible about our wonderful school, the staff and the many activities that our children enjoy through our curriculum and our extra-curricular activities.
