Although our existing school buildings date from only the 1970's, the original 'Godwin Road School' was founded on 1st October 1883. There was an entrance for junior boys in Cranmer Road. The Godwin Road entrance was shared by girls and infants - this entrance has been reinstated now that the school expansion programme has been completed.
Purpose is to prepare pupils for lifelong success.
At Godwin Junior School we
The British Values of
Are embedded within the ethos of the school, incorporated within the curriculum and evident in key aspects of school life. Our assemblies always relate directly to these and we explicitly relate these concepts to the everyday experiences of our children.
All school policies are available to view at the School Office. Paper copies are available on request. If you would like more information about any aspect of our school curriculum please speak to Ms Aslam, the Deputy Head, or Ms Brown, the Head Teacher.
At Godwin Junior School we recognise that pupils’ health and well-being underpins their ability to focus on learning and therefore we have a responsibility as well as a moral duty to support our children in this way. We understand that no child can learn to their best of their ability if they feel unwell, either mentally or physically. Working together, our aim is to help our pupils become resilient; young people who can face their difficulties, understand them and know and use strategies to overcome them. When a pupil is unable to manage this on their own, we have a robust school system in place, devised and lead by our designated safeguarding team, so that we can support where necessary.
In Spring term 2021 we held online meetings for parents and carers on Relationships and Health Education. For each year group, we shared overviews of what we plan to teach within the topics of 'Relationships' which is taught in Summer 1 and 'Changing Me' which is taught in Summer 2. We also answered any questions parents and carers had about this area of the curriculum. These sessions were recorded so that those parents and carers who were unable to attend the meetings could see what we are planning to teach.
