Welcome to Harewood Junior School. Set near the foot of Robinswood Hill on the outskirts of Gloucester, Harewood Junior School works alongside the infant school, which shares our site, to provide stimulating, high quality education for the children of Tuffley and surrounding areas. We believe that every child has the potential to achieve and we ensure this through our rich and varied curriculum and the structured teaching of key skills particularly in Literacy and Numeracy, matched to the needs of each child. Working in partnership with parents, our pastoral care and provision of extra-curricular activities support each child’s personal, social and emotional development as well as their academic progress, so that by the time the children leave us, they are well-prepared to face the new challenges of secondary school and are ready to take their place in our 21st century society, in an ever-changing world.
The Harewood Junior School Vision:
We want every child to feel they belong, they are cared for and they can achieve great things.
Our junior school aims to be a place where children feel valued, safe, and inspired to learn. We know every child as an individual, recognise their strengths and interests, and ensure they are supported and challenged to achieve their very best.
We believe high achievement and inclusion belong together. We strive to remove barriers to learning, provide the right support and ensure children who are ready for greater challenge are encouraged to go further.
We teach children to make informed choices. We teach them how to choose to be responsible, kind and safe – for themselves, others and their environment. We aim to develop their resilience and independence to become lifelong learners and active members of their communities.
We work in partnership with families, our community and other professionals, recognising that children thrive when the adults around them work together.
We will work hard to ensure our school is a welcoming and positive part of its community – building relationships founded on trust, respect and shared responsibility.
