Welcome to Edmund de Moundeford Primary School.
A Good School, OFSTED 2013, 2017 and 2022.
SOARING TO SUCCESS.
It gives me great pleasure to welcome you to our school website. The school brochure can be viewed from the link on the homepage.
For those parents who are considering sending your child(ren) to our school we appreciate that choosing the right school for your child is always a difficult decision and we hope that our website will help you to make the right decision. However, we are also very happy to show you around our school, if you would like to make an appointment, or we can answer any questions on the phone or via e mailing office@edmund-de-moundeford.norfolk.sch.uk.
For those parents who are already with us we hope that this website will provide you with everything that you need to know, from weekly newsletters to class letters, policies and diary dates.
Ethos and values
We are proud of our school, and we believe that it is a Good school. Our aim for all the children is to Soar to Success. This aim can be seen in our TRAITS values and throughout our everyday practice in school.
We help each individual child to be the best that they can be. We want all our children to be:
· happy
· confident
· well motivated
· polite and well behaved with a sense of right and wrong
· able to work and play on their own or cooperatively
· safe
· learners who try their best and enjoy achieving highly in many different skills
We value the partnership that we have with parents and strongly encourage mums, dads and carers to take an active role in our school.
Learning
- Teaching and learning is consistently of a Good standard.
- Children’s books clearly show good progress.
- Our curriculum is fun, exciting and relevant to prepare children for the type of skills that they might need in tomorrow’s future. We even teach Philosophy to extend the children's language and thinking skills.
We are equally delighted with the many other achievements that reflect the rich and varied provision we are able to offer at our school. We are particularly dedicated to sporting achievements. We have gained netball, hockey, cross country, athletics and football trophies and our school won the National Key Stage 2 general knowledge finals, which over 1000 schools entered.
We offer a wide variety of after school clubs, most of which are free. These constantly change and have included multisports, computing, philosophy, lego, netball, cheerleading, archery, computing and gifted reading.
Facilities
We offer a wide range of facilities including an extensive field, our own indoor swimming pool and a Learning Resources Centre, complete with sixteen computers. The Trust also donated our outdoor classrooms, which are spacious covered garden areas attached to the three Key Stage One classrooms.
Senior management
The senior management team consists of myself and Mrs Michelle Ablitt, my Deputy Headteacher. The SENDCO is Miss Clare Middleton.
Paper copies of information given on this website are available upon request.
We hope that you like our school. Feedback is always appreciated.
Mrs Julie Lillycrop
Headteacher
