From the Blackfield Primary School
Welcome to Blackfield Primary School, a proud member of The Inspire Learning Federation and a school academy.
Our sole goal at Blackfield Primary School is to "make learning irresistible."
We put learning at the centre of everything we do, and this mission is supported by the growth of our six learning values (Thinking, Independence, Creativity, Collaboration, Spirituality, and Emotional Intelligence) within the framework of our Integrated Curriculum, which has learning, motivation, challenge, and reflection at its core.
Our school provides a wide range of options, including a high teacher-to-student ratio, an abundance of educational tools, roomy accommodations, and large, well-kept grounds.
We truly think that primary education should focus on fostering in young students a love of learning and a desire to learn forever. This includes not only very high standards in English and mathematics, but also a whole lot more.
We want you to get a taste of what it's like to live in our progressive federation, and we look forward to having you visit our schools to learn more about us, the accomplishments of our students, and the exciting opportunities we offer.
