About us

Walmley Junior School aims to provide children with a sound academic education in a friendly, stimulating and caring environment, valuing and developing the potential of each individual child. By encouraging individual development we hope that each child will strive to access the curriculum we offer and achieve the high expectations we, as a staff, share and expect. At the end of the primary phase we would hope your child has developed a positive attitude to work, a lively and enquiring attitude to learning and a sound basis of knowledge and skills, particularly in numeracy and literacy, to enable him/her to take full advantage of his/her secondary education.

Our principle aims are to provide learning experiences for children that:

• Challenge them to achieve their fullest potential across the full range
  of the curriculum
• Develop skills required to live and work effectively with other people
• Encourage enjoyment and a sense of fulfilment in their work
• Develop creative, open, imaginative and lively discovering minds
• Foster a positive self-image; critical self-awareness and positive
  attitudes towards others
• Help them to become sensitive to the emotional, aesthetic, moral,
  spiritual, physical and intellectual needs of others as well as their own
