From the Maulden Lower School
Learning should be enjoyable, purposeful, and challenging, according to our philosophy at Maulden Lower School. We strive to give each child the tools they need for lifetime learning through our rigorous curriculum. Our goal is to foster independent, self-assured learners who take pride in their accomplishments. We consider every child to be important. We work to develop the full kid in a safe and secure environment where each person is regarded as an individual and accomplishments are rewarded via positive attitudes and collaborations. We think that everyone involved in our school community should cooperate to improve not only the on-campus environment and grounds, but also the neighbourhood. Through our curriculum and the connections we make with our local, national, and international communities, we hope to encourage sustainability and a broader awareness of concerns. We think that effective teaching, high standards, and successful learning will be supported by good cooperation and beneficial partnerships with: - individual students, the entire class, our colleagues, with governors, parents, and the larger community. We are a school with values. Look under the Curriculum: Values tab for further details.
