At Hollinswood Primary School & Nursery we aim to develop every child’s skills, knowledge and attitudes in order for them to become confident, independent and inspired learners.
We encourage the children to have high expectations and to contribute towards, reflect on and shape their role as learners - in addition to being responsible members of the school, the local and the wider community.
Through a context rich curriculum that goes beyond the school walls, children are given the confidence to aim high and to be the very best that they can be.
We see excellence in teaching and a love of learning as the key to succeeding in life. In a supportive, positive and caring environment our teachers and our learners are fully committed, focused on the task ahead, passionate in overcoming obstacles and alive for a challenge.

Those who are newly arrived to the country are welcomed and provided with support which enables them to quickly flourish.
As a team of staff, governors, parents and children we reflect on our strengths and successes and consider how we should build on them, providing us with additional focus and direction. This contributes to our vision for the school. We know that:
We plan to ensure that the points above are developed in a robust and measured way through our Raising Achievement Plan. This is based on our findings of how teaching and learning is carried out across the three phases, within the current Ofsted framework.
