Our Statement of Intent is ‘Unlocking Potential, Transforming lives’. This means that we want to unlock the potential and transform the lives of all members of our school community.  

For our children, this may be removing barriers to ensure they approach their secondary education, equipped socially, emotionally and academically; for others it may be unlocking a hidden music skill which shapes their future. 

For our staff, this may be providing opportunities to help them progress professionally. 

For our parents, this may be removing barriers to help them access adult education. 

For our wider community, this may be helping them to attend a school social event to prevent loneliness and encourage volunteering at future events. 

To enable us to achieve the above, all members of the school adhere to the Core Values of:

Each subject that forms part of our curriculum at St. Margaret’s follows a sequential progression of knowledge and skills. We aim to ensure all children are prepared for life in modern Britain by ensuring they leave our school with the cultural capital they need to be successful contributors to society. 

At St. Margaret's Primary Academy, we follow the CUSP curriculum model. This model is guided by evidence-led curriculum structures, such as retrieval, spaced retrieval practice and interleaving. It is underpinned by explicit vocabulary instruction and research-focused pedagogy. We have implemented this approach to inspire our children to have high expectations of themselves and what they can achieve.
