"At Stamford Junior School we are committed to providing an environment which encourages all children to maximise their potential."
Sarah Buttress
Deputy Head Academic - Stamford Junior School
We promote a love of learning and joy in discovery, central to our 'Independent Learning, Intellectual Curiosity' ethos. Our curriculum blends academic, practical and co-curricular activities to develop confident, independent and well-rounded learners.
Children see how their learning links to the world around them as they learn an instrument, explore Spanish and French, join trips that enrich classroom work and take part in residentials that build confidence and independence.
At Stamford we focus on each child as an individual, helping them discover their strengths and wear their own crown with confidence.
We are always evolving our approach to offer inspiring and varied opportunities, so every child feels ready to lead their own learning journey.
All of our children learn to look closely, to observe the world around them and to explore it with curiosity. As they move through the Junior School, we build a strong link between thinking and doing.
Whether exploring through science or expressing through art, children are encouraged to ask meaningful questions about the world, what is true, why it matters and how we can make a difference.
We inspire curiosity and broaden horizons through our excellent Little Lectures series. As part of this programme, our alumni with a wide range of careers and experiences, share their insights with our pupils.
Building on the success of the Stamford Lecture series, this initiative enriches our assemblies and humanities curriculum, offering a valuable way to inspire future generations.
We recognise that within our school, there is a range of different abilities, and we celebrate this.
In providing for the needs of learners as individuals we promote an inclusive learning environment. Our small class sizes make learning better for all.
For those needing more we offer high quality special needs support.
For those children that require more support in the classroom, we offer your child high quality special needs support to meet their needs as an individual.
We have a full time, non-teaching SENCO who can provide dedicated support with all SEN requirements.
