Vision and Ethos

Bird in Bush Primary School is a thriving learning environment at the heart of our community, providing excellent education enabling each pupil to progress and achieve their best.

We encourage creativity, individuality, innovation and enjoyment of education and lifelong learning with a broad, balanced curriculum and a range of extra-curricular activities.

We enable children to develop a strong understanding of themselves and respect for others through an appreciation of other perspectives and culture; we are inclusive and diverse.

We nurture physical and mental health, emotional maturity and self-confidence.

We celebrate kindness, loyalty, gratitude, integrity, determination; we put children’s safety and well-being first.

We believe everyone can exceed their expectations every day
