Reception Places for September 2021
Due to the Covid restrictions, we are not able to show people around the school at the moment. If you are interested in sending your child to Broad Town School then please take a look at the Information for Parents tab and then click on admissions. If you have any questions then please email the school. To help you get a better feel for the school, we are planning to put a virtual tour on the website this term.
Home Learning
If it becomes necessary for home learning to be implemented then home learning activities will be on the class pages. To ensure our website works most efficiently, there will only be two weeks worth of work on there at a time. We have explored a number of different learning platforms and feel that many offer some animated educational games but the quality of the learning is minimal. We will use the Naitonal Oak academy resources and activities designed by staff as we feel that these resources best support our curriculum and the needs of our children. We will also provide some teaching videos to support with home learning.We have also purchased White Rose Resources to support learning in school, homework and home learning
Welcome
Broad Town Primary School is a very small rural school on the outskirts of Royal Wotton Bassett. We are an inclusive school and the development of the whole child is central to our school’s Christian ethos. Staff are very skilled, dedicated and have high expectations of themselves and of the children they work with.
It is important for us to make the children’s time at school very special and memorable. We are very proud of our Forest School status which enables children to explore and learn outdoors. It supports the children in developing important life skills such as team work, problem solving and resilience as well as building confidence and self-esteem.
Our website will provide you with lots of information about the school. If you are considering which school is going to be right for your child and would like to visit our school then please make an appointment with the school office.
