Together we live, learn and value
Pupils can attend George Street from the age of 3 and once through nursery, there are usually two classes in every cohort. We are a forward thinking school and like to be involved in all things new and exciting.We are proud to be a successful school and will never rest on our laurels, always striving for improvement.
Our curriculum is built around the importance of promoting the key skills of literacy, numeracy and digital competence, but it is underpinned by a huge emphasis on pupils’ health and well being. The education we provide is broad, stimulating and exciting, promoting a curriculum around all areas of learning and experience with a significant focus on providing where possible real life, authentic learning experiences. We also strive to ensure that we celebrate the Welsh culture and language and ensure that this is embedded through as many learning experiences as possible.
We can of course boast of excellence in sport in particular, music and art. However, qualities like teamwork, kindness, generosity and happiness are the things that we really celebrate and, I must say, excel in. We encourage and foster family values as part of our school ethos and ensure that children are taught about the importance of those values through every aspect of their lives. We encourage children to be healthy and confident individuals who are ambitious and capable learners. We ensure that they should become informed citizens and be enterprising and creative contributors in all that they do.
George Street truly is a wonderful place to ‘Live, Learn and Value’.
