Inclusion

Heron Primary School is committed to inclusion and as such, celebrates diversity and values the contribution that every child makes. The curriculum in our school is broad, balanced and relevant, providing suitable learning challenges and access and opportunity for all children who attend the school.

The school recognises that pupil performance and wellbeing are synonymous and that at some time during their school life, children may have a barrier to their learning that needs to be overcome. In our school, staff provide a positive ethos and respond to children’s diverse and individual needs by providing a stimulating and welcoming learning environment, removing potential barriers to learning in order to help them reach their full potential. We are happy to celebrate we have achieved our Mental health champions award enabling children and young people to achieve their best and live happy and healthy lives.
