VISION
We believe that Highwoods should be progressive, research-led and dynamic.
Highwoods nurtures curiosity and creativity through an inspiring, broad and engaging
curriculum where learning is at the heart of all we do.
It is a community where everyone feels welcome, valued, listened to, safe and secure,
with mutual respect for all.
We are a school where all children are encouraged to express ideas and opinions,
to look beyond themselves, to be independent, where a lifelong love of learning is
the norm and all children reach their full potential, academically, socially and
emotionally, in a rich, inclusive, non-judgemental and supportive learning environment,
providing high-quality education.
Our children learn to become resilient and self-assured. Everyone is challenged and
encouraged to thrive and achieve as individuals, preparing them for their role as caring and active citizens.
A school that works in partnership together, valuing
the diversity and contributions of others.
A school that all children remember with
pride and affection
