Our Vision
Monkfrith fosters a safe, caring environment where every child thrives. We promote academic excellence, a love of learning, and a broad, balanced curriculum. Our children are resilient, respectful, and articulate. We support our teachers and work in partnership with families to ensure every child reaches their full potential.
Our Curriculum
We provide a broad and balanced curriculum. Our learning is connected through exciting themes which develop children’s ability to make horizontal links across the year and vertical links between year groups.
Vocabulary linked to subject specific areas of the curriculum, as well as vocabulary for learning, is explicitly taught so children are able to talk confidently about what they have learnt.
Wellbeing
Children’s wellbeing is at the heart of everything we do. We believe that happy, confident, and resilient children are best placed to thrive in their learning and personal development. Through our curriculum, we provide opportunities for children to understand and manage their emotions, using approaches such as the Zones of Regulation and PSHE. This ensures a shared language for discussing feelings and equips children with strategies to navigate challenges with confidence. By embedding wellbeing into all aspects of school life, we create a supportive environment where every child can flourish both academically and emotionally.
