From the Scartho Junior Academy
Welcome to the website of Scartho Junior Academy! Everything we do is centred on "Developing a Lifelong Love of Learning." Our main goal is to give every child a learning experience they will remember for the rest of their lives. This, in our opinion, is essential to inspiring youngsters to want to learn and attend school, which will subsequently have an effect on how well each child learns. Whilst the raising of standards in all areas of curriculum learning are of the utmost importance to us, we focus on developing every individual child so that they achieve their full academic, social, emotional and spiritual potential. As a school, we ensure that we know every individual child so we know what 'makes them tick' and what they are passionate about in order that they become great learners. The complete school strategy for creating highly motivated learners is closely linked to this strong emphasis on focusing on each individual child. We firmly believe that by focusing on, and celebrating individuals' successes, then every child will have an excellent chance to succeed as they progress through the learning journey at Scartho Junior Academy. The curriculum that we offer to every child is a crucial component of how we cultivate this learning culture. The "Immersive Learning" process serves as the foundation of our educational strategy. All of our kids will learn and "Develop a Lifelong Love of Learning" thanks to our highly engaging and motivating learning process. You can learn much more about our "Immersive Learning" method by choosing the menu item "Developing a Lifelong Love of Learning."
