Brookfield Primary School

Brookfield is a popular and successful two-form-entry inner-London primary school with a diverse school population. Over half of the pupils come from ethnic minority groups, and a quarter of the pupils speak English as an additional language. Twenty two percent of the children are eligible for pupil premium and the vast majority of the children live within a safe walking distance of the school. We are a very welcoming, inclusive and supportive community and enjoy a fantastic location, great facilities and high quality teaching and learning.

Brookfield is proud to be a Silver Rights Respecting School. What this means in practice is that we are committed to placing the values and principles of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) at the heart of our ethos and culture to improve well-being and to develop every child’s talents and abilities to their full potential. The best interests of the child are a top priority in all our considerations.

The result of such an approach is that children develop an awareness of global issues alongside an improved sense of security and confidence, which allows them to take the next step in advocating the rights of children everywhere through campaigning and raising awareness. A Rights Respecting School is a community where children’s rights are learned, taught, practiced, respected, protected and promoted.

At Brookfield, the rights of the child are integrated into learning across the curriculum, so that children develop their understanding of how the notion of rights has developed, why governments came together to agree on a set of rights, and how children’s rights are respected and/or neglected across the world today. We also ensure children’s participation in all aspects of school life by listening to children’s views and including them in decision making; from organising a charity day, to choosing new playground equipment or reviewing a school policy.
