Welcome to Anston Park Junior School, a place where students may learn happily and where having aspirations and dreams is encouraged.
Our straightforward attitude is based on the strong pillars of developing good relationships with kids and providing the finest instruction we are capable of in order to accomplish successful learning.
By the time they advance to the next stage of their education, we want every one of our kids to be successful in the 21st century and have the confidence needed to be global citizens. We also want them to be well-versed in the fundamentals of math, English, and ICT.
We do not make the claim or attempt to be "all things to all people," so the team is very motivated and focused on achieving high levels of student accomplishment.
Our strategy, however, is to provide for fruitful cross-curricular learning opportunities in every subject covered by the National Curriculum, where originality and creativity are valued.
Our school's principles include the six "Rs," and we work to help our students develop these traits as well as the capacity to take calculated risks in life. These traits include reflection, respect, resourcefulness, and resilience.
Our school's tagline, "where every child's potential counts," guarantees that our students grow spiritually, ethically, socially, as members of teams, and as future leaders.
