# Primary Welcome

#### ***Hello!***

*I’d like to welcome you to George Mitchell Primary Phase. We are proud of our lovely school and how we work together with our families to provide a caring and happy space where each individual is able to flourish.*

*We are fortunate to have a highly dedicated staff team who will go that extra mile.  We also know how important the role is that parents play and so welcome your involvement in your child’s education and in the life of our school.*

*Families are encouraged to contact any of our staff in the playground, by appointment or through Class Dojo to talk through any questions you may have at any point. We are a partnership with our children at the centre of all we do*.

*If you are not yet familiar with our school we would strongly recommend you book in for a visit. You will love our calm, focused environment, our happy teachers and our knowledgeable, confident, creative children.*

*We look forward to seeing you!*

***Mrs F Lord-Attivor, Head of Primary***

## Why choose GM Primary for your child?

Well…

Our teachers are dedicated, inspiring, fabulous. We believe in the power of education to transform lives and to bring joy. We are advocates of lifelong learning and this is as true for parents and teachers as it is for our students.

We are passionate about our curriculum and the creative opportunities afforded to our children in every year group. Our students take part in amazing projects and enrichment activities.

Our EYFS provision is practical, nature-filled and engaging. Our school building is only a few years old, light and airy and is at the end of a no-through road with a lovely park steps away. It is quiet, pollution-free, well-designed and filled with the sounds of nature.

GM Primary students have an automatic right to a coveted place at our over-subscribed secondary phase.

But what makes GM Primary a truly wonderful place to work and learn? **400 answers: the children.**

We would love to invite you to visit our school. We hold Open Mornings in September, October and January but we are always happy to accommodate a visit at any time of year.

Come and see for yourself.
