Victoria Primary School is a Nova Education Trust academy situated in the inner city Meadows area of Nottingham. Speaking over 40 languages and with experiences of life ranging from refugees to children of visiting academics at the city’s universities, our diverse pupil population is united by the motto “Work Hard; Be Kind”. This motto epitomises the entire staffs’ genuine commitment to coupling high academic expectation and achievement with a whole-team dedication to pupils’ spiritual, moral, social and cultural development. We have a set of “Work Hard” values that we teach directly to ensure our pupils consciously become the best learners they can be. Our ‘School Rules’ are written as “Be Kind” values; these give our pupils ‘ways of being’ rather than ‘rules to follow’.

Our school leaders believe that Victoria Primary School is a place of professional learning where the development of staff is the key to securing the best outcomes for our learners. Staff appraisal systems are built upon the premise that applied continuous professional development and learning is the marker of career progression. To that end, all teachers engage in regular peer lesson study time, receive personalised coaching, undertake team-led action research as well as receiving focused in-service training, Additionally, newly- and recently- qualified teachers receive dedicated weekly early career study whilst more experienced colleagues are expected to mentor undergraduate or postgraduate trainee teachers as well as facilitating the development of colleagues.
