Welcome to Westmeads Community Infants School

“Educating the mind without educating the heart is no education at all”

Aristotle

Welcome to our website! We appreciate you taking the time to find out about us and our school.  Here at Westmeads Community Infant School, we aim to give our amazing pupils the very best start to their educational journey. Our intent focuses on the high expectations we have of everyone and our belief that everyone has the ability to succeed. Our core values of independence, love, curiosity, kindness, perseverance and honesty run through everything we do and are the foundations of the school; shaping our curriculum and pedagogy, and guiding our behaviours and attitudes to learning.

Westmeads is an exciting place – and our best assets are our pupils and families. Buzzing with energy, the children are at the heart of everything we do, and meeting their needs is our main focus. We strongly believe that our families are very much part of our school and are our children’s co-educators, so we invite you to be involved in every step of your child’s school journey.

Our curriculum takes children beyond the classroom, venturing outdoors and into our local community. We are very lucky to have our very own canopy forest area onsite and the beach on our doorstep, of which we take advantage at every opportunity. Children and adults alike love learning when they are motivated, excited and having a real and hands-on experience and here at Westmeads that is what we strive to deliver.

We are immensely proud of Westmeads and hope you get a sense of our fantastic school from our website.

We always welcome visitors, so please do sign up for one of our upcoming tours by email or telephone or get in touch if you would like to become part of our community.
