Community

At Birkwood Primary School, we are dedicated to ensuring children are and understand how to be safe. Therefore, we teach our children ‘The Birkwood Way’ where we must show 100% Effort, 100%. Kindness and 100% Respect. The values are threaded through everything we do at our school. We protect the innocence of our children and teach them to be safe at all points during the day and in all they do both in school and in the wider community.

Not only is safety a crucial aspect of our personal development curriculum but we teach children in a safety- netted environment. We want to provide a safe space so that children can discuss any worries  or concerns. Then we can support children appropriately. Any regular support is monitored and adapted to support the needs of the children and shared with parents, carers and (where needed) professional services.

Building strong, positive relationships with our children, parents and carers and our wider community is key to our success.

We received a lovely card from the Foodbank at St. John’s Church. It was a special thing that we did for the Harvest Festival in order to help people local to us during challenging times. Thank you.
