WATERMAN PRIMARY SCHOOL

HEARTS Academy Trust is committed to providing a happy, caring and safe learning environment for all within a values led context, where everyone feels valued and grows in confidence and independence... We promote HAPPINESS through a creative, exciting and practical curriculum, which generates a love of, and interest in, learning and a resilience and hope which supports us through challenging times... In order to play a full and active role in society and prepare them for their future, we believe that children need strong reading and comprehension skills. Widening and increasing a child's vocabulary, which is a significant barrier to learning in our school community is achieved through reading a wide range of books on varying topics which is encouraged at Waterman Primary and Nursery School. The ability to read, understand and ask questions about what they read develops a child's ability to explore their own lines of enquiry across all areas of the curriculum.
