Balcombe C of E Primary School

Service

We are proud of our school and committed to providing a happy, caring and stimulating learning environment in which all children can achieve their best. Every child matters to us. We are an inclusive school and welcome and celebrate diversity.

What we do:

We all believe that a child having high self-esteem is crucial to their well-being and learning. We have a well-trained, caring and understanding team looking after our children ensuring that all are happy, confident and willing learners.
Our pupils’ views matter to us. Whether through our School Council, pupil questionnaires or informal discussions we listen and use pupils’ ideas to help plan for the future. For example, using their ideas to inspire a topic or buy new equipment.
We get to know our children really well, observing them continuously as they learn, listening to them and tracking their progress systematically. We can then plan a curriculum that best meets their learning needs and stimulates their interests.
We use our best endeavours to meet the needs of all the pupils in our school. All curriculum work is adapted according to a pupil’s specific needs to enable all our children to access the curriculum at their own level.
If you have any concerns please do not hesitate to talk to us; we will always listen. We invite parents into school at least twice a term to review a child’s progress as well as to hear views from parents as we value them highly.
