Description
Spinfield School was opened in September 1976. They are a combined school catering for children from the age of 4 to 11. They have a single form intake of 30 pupils in each of the year groups. They provide a broad and balanced curriculum for all children and expect high standards of work and behaviour.
Facilities
ICT FACILITIES: The school is well resourced for ICT. They have an interactive whiteboard in every classroom, laptop trollies and an iPad trolley. The school also has Wi-Fi access.
SCHOOL TRIPS: Trips are an important part of the children’s learning experience. These may involve walking to the local park or a coach trip to a specialist museum. The school has also built up a tradition of residential field trips for children in years 5 and 6. These are always of an educational nature involving thorough preparation and follow-up work. These trips follow National and Local Authority recommendations and guidelines.
SCHOOL GROUNDS: The school grounds give many opportunities for play and for learning. There are playgrounds, a balance trail, climbing apparatus and gazebo where children can sit quietly and chat. In the fine weather the open space of the large field is very popular. They have a nature trail around the edge of the field, a wild life pond and small garden areas, which support the environmental aspects of the science, geography and art curriculum.

Things to note
EXTRA-CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES: There is a wide range of extra-curricular activities offered by the school. Some are run by the school staff while others are run by private providers. At the beginning of each term, arrangements for the term’s clubs are sent to each parent/ carer.
FOREST SCHOOL: All classes get the opportunity to engage in Forest School in the nature trail. The children love this inspirational activity which offers all learners regular opportunities to achieve and develop confidence and self-esteem through hands-on learning experiences in a woodland or natural environment with trees. Forest School is a specialised learning approach that sits within, and complements, the wider context of outdoor and woodland education.
