These learning behaviours are Perseverance, Teamwork, Curiosity, Creativity, Reflection and Independence. We strongly believe that if our children continually develop these skills alongside making academic progress, then we have been successful in preparing them for our ever-changing world.
We celebrate the diversity of cultures within our school community and welcome the opportunity to develop our children as positive citizens within society. This is where our motto becomes a living statement, as we truly believe that we are a school "Where Individuals Matter". Our ethos is to focus on every child being happy at Highwood, helping them make progress and achieve their own ambitions.
Highwood prides itself on its inclusive nature. This is epitomised through the exceptional work undertaken in The Grove Speech and Language Resource, which provides specialist support for children with speech, language and communication needs from across Wokingham. Children benefit from expert provision alongside integrated support within a mainstream classroom, ensuring they can access all the opportunities Highwood has to offer.
Our ethos is to focus on every child being happy at Highwood; to help them make progress and achieve their own ambitions.
The values, vision and mission of the Orchard Learning Alliance go hand in hand with what we strive for at Highwood Primary School. Working in collaboration with other like-minded schools that share similar educational philosophies allows us to continue to improve whilst retaining everything that makes Highwood a unique school.
Being part of the Orchard Learning Alliance provides opportunities to work closely with colleagues across the Trust, share expertise and learn from one another. Through collaboration and professional networks, we can strengthen educational practice, support staff development and continue to provide the best possible opportunities for our children.
As part of the Alliance, we remain committed to our ethos "Where Individuals Matter", ensuring every child is supported to be happy, make progress and achieve their ambitions while benefiting from being part of a wider family of schools.
