Welcome!
I'm Mark Gibbons and I feel immensely proud to be the Headteacher of Windmill Primary School.
Take a step inside our school grounds and into the school building and you will be instantly struck by the calm, warm, positive atmosphere and the quality of provision.
I think children who become Windmill pupils are really lucky - I wish I had gone to a primary school that had such an excellent teaching team and such wide-ranging opportunities!
I hope you find the things you are looking for on our school website.
I would recommend using the search function, but if you prefer to navigate through the menus, here's what you'll find:
In the 'About Windmill' section there is information about the school, so you can find out what is important to us and why our school is the way it is.
In the 'Parents and Carers' section we aim to give all the information that families might be looking for (in alphabetical order).
In the 'Windmill Curriculum' section we explain about our school curriculum - why we teach what we teach and how we make sure it works, with useful information about what knowledge and skills the children are learning at different times of the year. You'll also find out about our famous Deep and Diverse Experiences and pupil passports.
In the 'Classes and Staffing' section you can see all the class pages, find out who the staff are, and check what the weekly routine is (especially what days to come in PE kit!).
In the 'SEND and Accessibility' section you can find out what can offer for children with Special Educational Needs and/or Disabilities. There is also information on our positive and proactive approach to Mental Health.
In the 'Keeping Children Safe' section we aim to reassure you about our excellent safeguarding track record and how we continue to make this the most fundamental aspect of our provision.
In the 'More School Information' section you can find out how our school performs, how we use our finances and resources and how we are held to account by our governors, the Community Academies Trust board, Ofsted and you - our 'customers'!
...talking about you being customers... feel free to have a look at some of the lovely things people have said recently about Windmill (from recent surveys and visitors' comments).
Finally, the most thrilling of sections: 'Policies'! We are sure there will be a time in your life when you need to refer to one of school policies, so here they are. If there is one that you need that is not in this library, please contact us.
