About us
At Cheetwood we provide an orderly and caring community in which all pupils can learn and understand, in a happy and secure atmosphere. We seek to give encouragement to learners of all abilities to develop a sense of purpose and confidence, which will provide a secure foundation for their later education.
The family atmosphere of the school indicates the value we put upon a co-operative relationship between child, staff and parents/carers.
The multicultural nature of the school population and its inner-city locality close to the heart of Manchester are a constant source of inspiration for children's work and activities. In 2014 Ofsted commented that "in the playground pupils enjoy one another's company and show great respect and tolerance of each other's cultural backgrounds and circumstances".
Continued development in the provision of computer bases for our classrooms is providing our children with the skills that will be essential for the 21st Century.
The curriculum we provide has had much attention spent on it to ensure that it delivers the legal requirements as set out in both the Early Years Foundation and National Curriculums and is also relevant to the needs and experiences of our inner-city children. We are currently re-working the Y1 to Y6 curriculum so that it will meet the requirements of the new National Curriculum which becomes statutory in September 2014.
We have close links with Abraham Moss High School, together with other schools in North Manchester, Salford and Bury, essential for the smooth transition from Primary to Secondary education.
