Birkby Junior School

Birkby Junior School is a community primary co-educational day school catering for children in the age range 7 to 11 years.

Striving for Excellence, Caring for All

At Birkby Junior School, we aim to provide a creative, enjoyable and rewarding learning experience for each child in an inclusive, secure and stimulating environment:

• To ensure that no pupil is disadvantaged because of background or educational needs.
• To enable pupils to develop their full potential at school, college, university and in life.
• To ensure that every pupil can realise their aspirations.
   

We want to make sure that all pupils will: 

• Develop lively enquiring minds to question and argue rationally and apply themselves to all tasks.
• Develop self-awareness and self-reliance, self-esteem resilience and confidence.
• Use language and numbers effectively.
• Recognise, celebrate and learn from different cultures and faiths within our community.
• Understand and respond to the needs of local, national and international communities.
• Develop a sense of belonging to the school community and form relationships based on co-operation, courtesy, care, respect and tolerance.

We can achieve this by having high expectations, striving to create a secure, friendly and caring atmosphere where well-merited praise is used to enable each child to develop their talents to the full.

We aim to provide a happy school where learning is fun and exciting.
