From the Burlington Junior School
I'd like to extend a warm welcome to you on behalf of the entire staff at Burlington Junior School.
In our experience as a junior school, young children learn best when their minds are engaged by an engaging and demanding curriculum that inspires them to learn.
We aggressively promote children's natural curiosity about the world and recognise each child's accomplishments.
Every youngster should develop a passion for learning that lasts a lifetime.
At Burlington Junior School, we take seriously our obligation to prepare students for life in contemporary Britain.
Our school goes to great lengths to make sure that our students are exposed to a wide range of rich experiences both inside and outside of their immediate community.
As a school, we place a high priority on the opinions of the student body and offer numerous opportunities for both students and parents to share their thoughts.
Now that a Parent Forum is officially formed, I urge you to participate as much as you can in it.
Attending Parent Forum meetings, getting involved with the PTA, serving as the class representative, or even thinking about joining the Burlington School Governors are all possible ways to achieve this.
For the duration of their time with us, Burlington Junior School offers kids and their families a joyful, warm, and loving atmosphere.
I'd like to welcome you and your family once more.
