From the Highlands Primary School
At Highlands, we want to build a learning community where every child is at the centre of all we do and say. We respect each student's uniqueness and recognise the significance of what they bring to the classroom and the school as a whole. We are aware that fostering children's personal, social, and emotional growth benefits learning. We put our best effort into all we do, and we firmly believe that raising our kids in close collaboration with their families will help them reach their greatest potential as students and citizens of the world. Our learning environment, which is safe, welcoming and stimulating, promotes our vision of children's development into independent, lifelong learners with the skills to succeed in the future - persistence, resilience, effort, positivity and self-awareness. We make sure that every child is cherished and feels a feeling of belonging by being an inclusive school that celebrates variety and fosters respect for one another. We are a Rights Respecting School, putting the UN Convention on the rights of the child at the heart of our planning, policies, practice and ethos, to enable children to develop as global citizens. We are adamant that the UNCRC accurately captures the viewpoints of our institution. We want you to get a sense of our learning community through our website. Call the school office to schedule a visit if you'd like to learn more about our institution.
