Watchfield Primary School is proud to announce that it has been awarded the National Nurturing Schools Award by nurtureuk, following a rigorous assessment process last week. The award recognises the school’s unwavering commitment to nurturing the wellbeing and development of its pupils through a whole-school approach.

On Thursday 10^th July we held our end of year presentations for the 2024-2025 cohort of Aspiring Leaders.

This was a celebration of the work and commitment they have shown all year towards their professional development. The programme consists of termly face-to-face focussed training/development sessions, and networking opportunities in between. Each Leader spoke for five minutes, showcasing the impact the programme has had on their subject/area of leadership.

Larkmead School hosted a really successful tree planting on the 15th March. Staff, students and their families came together as a community to plant nearly 200 trees. This will not only serve in our efforts to tackle the climate crisis, but also to create a valuable learning opportunity for our students.
