About Clare House Primary School
Welcome to Clare House Primary School
At Clare House, the children are at the heart of every decision and we constantly ask ourselves, ‘would this be outstanding for my child?’
Clare House is a vibrant and successful community-based school where every child is known as an individual and where our Governing Body, PTA and hugely supportive parent body play a central role in helping us to achieve what we want for our children; an outstanding education.
We continue to dedicate ourselves towards providing rich opportunities for learning in the present, whilst preparing our children for dynamic and successful futures in an ever-changing world.
At Clare House our children will:
· be safe, happy and confident and will leave the school with a love of learning and the social, academic and life skills to be successful as engaged and productive citizens of the modern world
· have curious minds, perseverance and resilience; they will have good character and embrace new opportunities, work hard and not give up easily on challenges
· develop excellent core skills in reading, writing and maths, as the foundations of future success. They will have a love of reading for pleasure, offering them a lifetime of knowledge, stimulation and joy far beyond their years of formal education
· have a broad range of opportunities in the curriculum including: Philosophy for Children, specialist provision in P.E., Music and Modern Foreign Languages. All children take part in concerts and productions and we have competitive teams in a range of sports
· know that Clare House is a school built around respect; they will have respect for all members of the school, the community and their environment. That respect is mutual and the voice of the children plays a central role in the life of the school – symbolised by our School Council.
