Lawrence Community Primary School is a life-long learning community.

Effective teaching and learning takes place and there is fairness for all.

We expect all of our children to achieve their full potential and our staff work every day to try to make this happen.

We equip all of our children with the skills to become responsible members of society.

Everyone is valued at Lawrence.

Our teachers start with their CURRICULUM OVERVIEW of what they intend to teach the children.

They make sure the children aquire the correct SKILLS and make PROGRESS throughout our curriculum each year. STICKY KNOWLEDGE runs throughout our engaging curriculum.

Our children demonstrate RESILIENCE in their learning have flexibility to make choices. They have the opportunity to take risks and have the chance to make useful mistakes. They are given opportunities to question and are encouraged to be curious. They become INDEPENDENT and are given time to explore and be CREATIVE. They focus on big ideas and are able to be FORWARD THINKERS, able to make connections with the real world. They have fun and are ACTIVE during lessons, they are OPEN MINDED and they are allowed to be challenging in a safe and RESPECTFUL manner.

We believe in a broad and balanced curriculum where all subjects are valued equally and children’s individuality and creativity is encouraged.

A broad and balanced curriculum built around curiosity, independence collaboration and high expectations will equip our children with the knowledge and skills required for adult life.

The outcomes of our curriculum are clearly identified and achieved through the application of knowledge and skills which are reinforced through practice, consolidation and challenge.

The aim of our curriculum is that our children are inquisitive, curious, independent and able to work collaboratively demonstrating the values of equality, fairness and respect.

Our curriculum is delivered using quality resources within a safe, vibrant and language rich environment where everybody is valued and diversity is celebrated.
