Belmont Junior School

Welcome to Belmont Junior School. We want children to learn well and to have fun while doing so at our school. We provide a very broad range of exciting experiences as they progress through our school, which captures their curiosity and fosters a love of learning about the world around us. We want children to leave our school with great memories that will last them a lifetime.

We know that children do best when they are supported at home and so we work very closely with our parents to ensure that our children can thrive during their time in our school and into the future. Our next-door neighbour is Belmont Infant School and so we work very closely with them to ensure that together we provide the best possible start to your children’s education.

In our school we have the highest expectations in terms of children’s work, their conduct around school, in their manners and their behaviour. Our children are happy to be at our school, make great progress and achieve well and we are proud that they leave our school well equipped for the next phase of their education.

At Belmont, we are preparing our children to thrive in an ever-changing and fast-paced world. In doing so, we equip them with the skills, knowledge and resilience to adapt and succeed whatever the future holds. We want our children to help to make the world a better place as kind, caring and responsible citizens who celebrate society’s diversity. We want everyone to understand that they can make a difference to the world they inhabit and to enjoy all that life has to offer.

Learning
We are curious about the world around us and love to learn at Belmont.

Our learning is stimulating and exciting and will take us beyond the National Curriculum. It opens our eyes to the opportunities and rich variety of experiences life has to offer.

We understand that we all have different strengths and we want everyone to have the opportunity to shine.

Perseverance
We are resilient and determined individuals who don’t give up easily. We try our hardest in all that we do and if we don’t get it right first time, we will try again. We are happy to take risks and understand that the mistakes we make help us to learn.

Generosity of spirit
We treat everyone with the respect we expect to see bestowed on ourselves. We show concern for others’ feelings and are honest, fair and kind towards everyone. We take responsibility for our own actions and make sure that we behave in a way that makes us proud.

Collaboration
Everybody in the Belmont community – parents, children, staff and Governors – belongs to the Belmont family. Like a family, we are united and we support and help each other. We understand that we can achieve more when we are a team working together.
