What makes Maylands different?
A Unique learning environment…
Our Reggio Emilia inspired learning environment provides a calm and purposeful setting for our children. Our school building is well-designed but we are continuing to develop the learning areas inside and out.
Emotional well-being is at the heart of everything we do…
We are a Thrive school, which means we are emotionally literate, promote mutual respect between adults and children and value what our children have to say. All our staff eat together with the children in a family-style dining environment every lunchtime to enjoy a healthy school meal.
Passionate about enrichment opportunity…
We offer Forest School to every child, seek out exciting visits and visitors, have an Artist in Residence and specialist teachers.
Visits to the school could be arranged and informal discussions available for potential candidates.
