About Kensington Avenue Primary School

Welcome to Kensington Avenue Primary School. We are a community academy, situated on a site surrounded by green, outdoor spaces which we use for learning and play. The school is designed for children from age 3+ (Nursery/Reception) to age 11 (Year 6).

We are a team of staff who aim to create a school in which every pupil will flourish in a caring, happy environment.  Our staff care for the children and work to develop strong, meaningful relationships with them and their families as we see their learning as a partnership.

We have high expectations of every one of our children.  Our ethos is to teach children to take responsibility for their actions, their environment, and most importantly, for their learning.  Children are taught the values that help them become confident, resilient and caring individuals and successful members of society who persevere in their learning.  We are a caring community, whose values are built on mutual trust and respect for all. Teachers harness children’s natural curiosity and desire to learn, making learning stimulating and enjoyable.  We support all children at an individual level, whatever their learning strengths and needs.

We strongly believe in the importance of developing a supportive partnership between home and school. This is essential if children are to achieve their full potential and to grow as individuals. With TEAM as our ethos, we work with families to support children to develop the skills that they will need in later life. We want all of our children to be happy, confident learners and to aim high!
