Principal’s Welcome
A very warm welcome to Silver Springs Primary Academy!
We hope that our website will give first time visitors a real flavour of the atmosphere at Silver Springs, as well as providing parents and other visitors with lots of information about school events, policies and day to day life. The website is also a great place for our children to keep up to date with what is happening at school through their class pages.
Silver Springs Primary Academy is a school that opens doors for children. From the very beginning in the Foundation Stage, right through until children leave for high school we provide children with unforgettable experiences that open doors to the wider world, leaving them itching to know more and eager to learn, inspiring them to achieve great things and become great citizens. Building the best possible future for the community in which they live.
We believe that education is about children experiencing the joy of discovery, solving problems, being creative in the art of writing, art and music, developing their self-confidence as learners and maturing socially and emotionally, combining high expectations with a broad and enriched curriculum ensuring that education is a fusion of excellence and enjoyment.
We believe that children learn best when they are excited and actively engaged, when there is joy in what they are doing and they love learning. English and Maths are the backbone of children’s learning, with a strong emphasis on ICT as a cross curricular tool, which both stimulates and facilitates learning at all levels. Encouraging children to take and interest in the natural world, to be proactive in protecting the environment and to understand the impact of our everyday lives on the world around them, empowers them to make a genuine difference.
By providing children with a safe, secure and sustainable environment in which they are encouraged to take risks in their learning and where mistakes and errors are not seen as stumbling blocks but as vital stepping stones to unlocking success, we enable them to grow in confidence and character.
Thank you for visiting our website, we hope that you will come back soon, this really is a work in progress! I hope that you find everything that you need, if not please drop me an email and we will endeavour to include it in the future! I hope that you enjoy browsing and find out lots to interest you about Silver Springs Primary Academy.
I look forward to welcoming you.

Principal
