Welcome from our Head Teacher
Welcome to Midfield Primary School. I am absolutely delighted to be the Headteacher of this wonderful school which is judged by Ofsted to be 'Outstanding' in all areas.
Our school is extremely fortunate to be set within large grounds overlooking Scadbury Wood Nature Reserve; it has its own Celtic hut, multiple forest school areas, an amazing sports field, edible garden, play area and swimming pool! Outdoor learning experiences are often remembered for a lifetime and the opportunities Midfield can provide are like no other I have worked in. The site and facilities we have truly are exemplary and pave the way for us to create a fantastic curriculum offer.
At Midfield we believe that outdoor learning helps children grow into confident and responsible citizens who value and appreciate the natural environment; helping them to make sense of the world around them by putting their learning into a meaningful context. Outdoor Learning is very much embedded and at the heart of our curriculum which embraces creating memorable learning experiences. We encourage resilience and positive attitudes to learning and set high expectations so that pupils can make the best possible progress, achieving their potential.
The arts, physical education, computing, science, the humanities and the development of character are just as important as Maths or English results, and it is through a combination of all areas that Midfield children are enabled to leave our school ready for the challenges and opportunities that await them. We want our children to become critical thinkers, to be resilient and resourceful, and to be able to work together to solve problems, and recognise that it is through the development of a relevant and interesting curriculum that these aims are met.
We hope you enjoy exploring our website. There is a menu on the right leading to some parental reviews and case studies, plus there is a short video found below highlighting some of the wonderful learning that takes place at our school; but nothing will be as good as paying us a visit! If you are new to the area, please call to make an appointment to view the school. If you are an existing parent or carer, you know you are regularly invited in to school.
