The Hayes Primary School

We are a warm and vibrant school at the heart of our community and are proud of the education we offer our children and our successes. We believe passionately that a great education is one of the most precious gifts a child can receive. We want our children to enjoy their learning and we achieve this in an environment which fosters the fundamental values including respect, responsibility, empathy, positivity, self-belief, co-operation and tolerance.

Underpinning all we do is a belief that every moment a child is in school must be used effectively. If time is wasted it is lost forever and cannot be given back, therefore, our structures and policies are designed to maximize learning potential spent in school. Our excellent staff team are committed to ensuring the highest expectations for each and every child and this is supported through nurturing a love of learning, encouraging independent thinking, making experiences creative, varied and inclusive and developing skills for life. Although raising standards remains our main objective, we also have great provision and an excellent reputation for sport and the performing arts.

We aim to make learning at The Hayes irresistible. Children have just one childhood; we believe their primary school experience should be magical, filled with inspirational and unforgettable learning experiences. At The Hayes, we know it is both our duty and pleasure to help our children delight in their precious childhood years, building a firm foundation for the next stage in their education and the rest of their lives. Our ultimate role is to help them blossom and grow, to believe in themselves and that anything is possible.

We believe education is a partnership between home and school and we want to build a long and rewarding relationship with you, in order that your son or daughter may achieve their best and be happy. A warm welcome awaits you at The Hayes and we hope you enjoy exploring this website: it is a window on the wonderful things that go on here.

At The Hayes Primary School our priority is to develop a love of learning, inspired by quality teaching by building and developing upon all of our individual talents. We work tirelessly to ensure that our children enjoy a stimulating and diverse education; learning is irresistible, children are happy, feel safe and are valued. Learning experiences are rich and enjoyable.

Everything we do as a school is to ensure that our children achieve their very best and we are deeply aware that children only get one chance at their primary education. It is therefore our job to ensure that they all reach for the highest levels of personal achievement and development. We want every child to be successful; to reach for success from the very first day they join us so when they leave us, they have a love of learning for the rest of their lives.

At The Hayes Primary School we are committed to delivering the National Curriculum. Staff have worked hard to revise schemes of work to bring them in line with the new expectations and the topic webs that can be found within this section illustrate these changes. All staff have received training in the developments and changes within the 2014 Curriculum. Throughout this coming year, the new schemes of work will be continually reviewed to ensure that they provide opportunities for children to develop the skills they require to become life-long learners.
