WELCOME

Highfield is a happy school, where children learn in a caring environment and all are valued. Our school motto CARE stands for our values of:

Consideration

Aspiration

Responsibility

Enjoyment

which we encourage our school community to demonstrate through their words and actions.

We aim to develop creative approaches to learning where children are engaged, excited and enthused about what they are doing in school. We teach children to aim high and develop their individual skills and talents so that each child achieves their potential.

We want to instil in children a love of learning for its own sake and help them become confident, self-disciplined individuals capable of engaging in a lifelong process of learning.

 I hope you find the information here a helpful insight into the life and work of our school.

Highfield Primary School: Committed to a Greener Future with Let's Go Zero

At Highfield Primary School, we are passionate about nurturing a sustainable future for our children and our planet. We are proud to announce our commitment to the Let's Go Zero campaign, a national initiative that empowers schools to take meaningful action on climate change.

Our Climate Action Plan, developed collaboratively by our staff, leadership team, and students, outlines our journey towards reducing our school's carbon footprint. We believe that by working together, we can make a significant difference. This plan is guided by our school's C.A.R.E. values – Consideration, Aspiration, Responsibility, and Enjoyment – ensuring that our environmental efforts are embedded in everything we do.

Through practical steps in energy efficiency, waste reduction, sustainable procurement, and fostering climate awareness, we are not only teaching our pupils about the importance of environmental stewardship but also actively demonstrating it. We are committed to:

  • Reducing our energy consumption through smart technologies and promoting energy-saving behaviours.
  • Minimising waste and embracing reuse and recycling initiatives.
  • Promoting sustainable travel options for our school community.
  • Integrating climate education into our curriculum, empowering our young learners to become informed and active citizens.
  • Enhancing biodiversity on our school grounds.

We invite our entire school community – pupils, parents, staff, and governors – to join us on this important journey. By embracing these changes, we are not only creating a healthier environment for ourselves today but also safeguarding the future for generations to come.
