Moorland School
Nurturing Young Minds
Seeing our students as an extension of our own family is paramount in the levels of success and happiness we deliver. We actively encourage warmth and respect for all and ensure that we celebrate success at every opportunity. We strive to support cultural differences whilst maintaining a traditional approach to education.
We understand that every child is unique and this should be reflected in their learning journey. We prepare our students academically and socially in preparation for successful and fulfilling lives.
Education
Helping Children Reach Their Full Potential
As a non-selective independent school, we enrol children based upon their behaviour which allows us to ensure that all children learn in a happy environment.
Children are fully assessed when they join Moorland to help us identify any educational differences or special requirements for individual learning styles. We also aim to identify all areas of strength within students. This allows us to deliver teaching that allows each student to reach their academic potential.

While our social media often shows the fun side of life at Moorland Junior School, academic excellence remains at the heart of everything we do. ✏️
This week is assessment week at Moorland Juniors. Our pupils are working incredibly hard, showing everything they have learned this term. These assessments help us plan the next steps in learning, ensuring lessons remain progressive, challenging and focused on academic mastery for every child. ✨📚
Our small class sizes also allow teachers to truly understand each pupil, adapting lessons to meet individual needs and ensuring every child is both supported and challenged to reach their full potential. ✨📚

Our Community Outreach group have been busy during enrichment time! 🌟
After spending the past few weeks visiting residents at High Brake House Residential Home, the children have now been working with Moorland Nursery, planning activities, reading stories and learning how to lead and support younger children during play based learning.
Next up, they’ll be volunteering at a local charity shop as they continue learning about giving back to the community. 💛

Travel Diaries ✨ Day 2 – Part 1
Day 2 started bright and early and the excitement levels were high! ✨
The children headed straight into the magic, ticking off rides, exploring the park and spotting some familiar faces along the way. From big thrills to little magical moments, the smiles said it all.
We were so proud of how brilliantly the children represented Moorland Junior School - supporting each other, embracing every moment and making memories that will last a lifetime.
More magic from Day 2 coming soon… ✨🏰 #MoorlandAtDisney #DisneyDiaries #SchoolTripMemories #Disneyland

Be Confident in Choosing Your Child's Education
We believe every child has the right to a high standard of education which is why we are academically non-selective. We select students based on their behaviour and personal attributes and combine this with a dedicated teaching and pastoral team. We strive to educate your child to the highest academic level, whilst ensuring they stay grounded.
We want you to feel confident in choosing Moorland to educate your child, which is why we operate an ‘open door’ policy with regard to parental visits. Our dedication to education is reflected in our students’ success.
