Welcome to Vauxhall School
'Building on the strengths of every child'
At Vauxhall School, our goal, together with parents, is to nurture kind, confident, and creative children who love coming to primary school and actively contribute to our community. Our teachers are passionate, enthusiastic, and dedicated, committed to supporting each child’s social, emotional, and academic growth in ways that are appropriate for their age and stage of development. We achieve this through up to date teaching practices tailored to each child’s abilities.
We explicitly teach the skills and knowledge essential for reading, writing, and mathematics, including our well established Structured Literacy programme, which supports reading, spelling, and writing.
To bring this philosophy to life, our flexible classroom spaces include withdrawal rooms, enabling teachers to work with small groups and provide personalised learning experiences.
Our staff benefit from ongoing professional development, ensuring they are equipped to meet the evolving needs of children in today’s ever changing world.
We warmly invite you to visit Vauxhall School to see our engaging and supportive classrooms firsthand. If you are new to our school, I would be delighted to give you a tour and answer any questions. Existing parents are encouraged to become actively involved in the classroom as parent helpers, helping to enrich our students’ learning experiences.
