At Brookside, our goal is to create a welcoming and inclusive school environment that embraces all children from our local community. We believe that all members of our school community should work together to maintain a safe and stimulating environment both within school and within our local and global community.
We believe that learning should be enjoyable, purposeful, and challenging for every student, allowing them to reach their full potential. Our aim is to equip each child with the necessary skills to become independent and confident learners. We encourage a sense of ownership over their own learning by empowering each child to take control of their educational journey.
Through inspirational teaching, we strive to cultivate a happy and supportive environment that nurtures the unique potential within each child. Our dedication lies in maintaining our position as a high-achieving school, ensuring that our students perform at their best. We do this by developing the whole child through positive attitudes and partnerships and meeting individual needs. We are forward thinking, innovative and eager to celebrate differences and distinctions.
Each child’s personal development is our goal at Brookside. We nurture this with a robust curriculum, comprehensive PSHE and RSHE programs, and inclusive practices. Our children actively engage, demonstrating responsibility and empathy. The focus on mental health, e-safety, and character development is evident through impactful interventions. Emphasising diverse cultural experiences, inclusivity, equal opportunities, and a proactive stance against bullying contributes to a safe and enriching learning environment, empowering students to navigate challenges and embrace responsible citizenship.
We believe that shared values and positive partnerships among students, staff, governors, parents / carers, and the wider community are crucial in enabling each child to take responsibility and be well-prepared for their future endeavours. Our goal is to instill enthusiasm in our pupils, empowering them to become independent and confident achievers in an ever-changing world.
