Children here are at the heart of all we do and we continually strive to help each child find their strengths and talents so that they will flourish and be challenged. “The school is ambitious for pupils to achieve well” (Ofsted July 2024)
At Mereside, our motto is ‘Learning Together, Achieving Together’ which demonstrates our commitment with pupils, parents, staff, governors and the local community to nurture a culture of lifelong learning for all. Our children have access to creative, sporting, musical and cultural opportunities with a variety of extra-curricular activities. “This school is central to the local community that it serves. Pupils are happy and enjoy coming to school…pupils trust their teachers to care for them, including when they need comfort or reassurance” (Ofsted July 2024)
All of our work revolves around our three school ‘bees’ which includes our own hive and is incorporated throughout our Mereside Way which both children and staff live by. ‘Be kind, Be safe, Be ready’ is implemented every minute, every day and supported by our very strong pastoral team who ensure that the care, guidance and support our children receive is second to none and enables all children to be ready for their next stage of education. “Pupil behave well during lessons and around school.

Our staff and children are encouraged to have the highest expectations of themselves and others. The golden thread that runs through our school are our six values:

Through these we aim to develop independence and self-confidence so we are all enthused to become the very best that we can be. During the last year, the teachers have worked tirelessly to develop even more creative approaches to teaching and completely re-designed our curriculum with new topics, visitors into school and a wide range of trips to expand learning and life experiences. We are also now a Forest School and look forward to seeing this develop this year.
Similarly, here at Mereside, we endeavour to ensure all our children obtain and achieve the highest of standards, whilst providing a secure and safe environment with fun and challenging learning opportunities. Key Stage 2 results have improved dramatically over the last three years, whilst our progress measures through school have been outstanding, putting us in the top 3% nationally.
