From the Broadfield Primary Academy
Children at Broadfield Primary Academy are excellent and eager to learn new things every day. In order to present a skills curriculum that best meets the requirements of all our students, teachers and support staff work diligently. Building up this skill set on a daily basis enables us to make sure that every child receives the education they deserve in order to prepare them for the next level of learning. In addition to these skills, our vision is to develop well rounded pupils who have the enthusiasm, resilience, empathy, competitive drive, aptitude and love of reading & learning that is necessary in this modern world. Most importantly, we want our kids to be the finest local, national, and global citizens they can be by developing the abilities and confidence to master and use all of these qualities. To work alongside us and assist our children's success, we hire instructors and support personnel with the highest potential who are either seasoned or just out of college. We work hard, we enjoy what we do and while we continually drive to improve standards for our children, we strive to celebrate our successes along the way.
