General Information
Worsbrough Bank End Primary School services the wider community of Worsbrough and Kendray, an area of mostly social housing located approximately one mile to the east of Barnsley town centre. Historically a community living with the long term effects of high levels of unemployment, lack of community confidence and low educational attainment, the community is now starting to turn a corner with decreasing levels of crime, investment in social housing and increasing local opportunities for engaging with the communities.
Ethos
This is a very caring and supportive school providing a safe, secure environment. We are dedicated to raising confidence and self esteem in all our pupils. We set high expectations for both learning and behaviour and provide appropriate support to achieve those aims.
Our Youngsters are well mannered, polite and respectful and generally behave well. The whole staff team work together to challenge, motivate and enthuse our children to value education and prepare them for adult life.
Teaching and Learning
All staff are committed to providing high quality teaching and learning, they approach new initiatives with enthusiasm drive and commitment and continually strive to raise standards.
Over the last four years staff have worked hard to develop teaching and learning, which has resulted in the school adopting accelerated learning techniques, mind mapping and social and emotional development. The curriculum has been changed to meet the needs of our pupils and break down the barriers to learning. Staff work hard to impact on pupil achievement.
Parents and Community
The school encourages parent and community involvement at all levels and this continues to be an area of development, since parents, although they engage with school, can be reluctant to be involved in their childrens learning.
Work is well underway to address the Every Child Matters agenda and the leadership team is working hard to plan and develop the extended schools agenda in order that the community receive all support mechanisms they require, some of the agencies involved in this development are, Sure Start, Social Services, School Health, The Stairfoot and Worsbrough Locality Well Being Team, YMCA, PCT, LPT and United Learning Trust.
