Welcome to Watling Park School, a primary free school in Barnet which opened in September 2015. The school currently has children from Reception to Year 3 and will grow organically to its full capacity of 420 pupils in 2021. We are part of the Bellevue Place Education Trust.
As well as state-of-the-art facilities, this new building brings fresh investment into the area for the pupils and local community. Our grounds feature a 3G (artificial grass) multi-use games pitch for use not just by the school, but also community groups in the evenings and at weekends. It is our ambition to offer free or low-cost community use of these facilities to local groups for at least 2 sessions a week, with access every evening and weekend.
We are proud of the high-quality education our school offers, along with the before and after-school care which enhances the opportunities for our pupils. Pupils at Watling Park School are nurtured and guided through school life; we aim to stimulate and inspire our children, develop their interests and equip them with lifelong learning skills through the provision of a broad, rich and exciting curriculum which focuses on developing children's love of learning, as well as their excitement and passion across a diverse range of opportunities including trips and visits, outdoor learning and creative focuses such as Arts and Science Weeks.
We also offer exciting opportunities for outstanding, ambitious teachers to join our expanding school. The opportunity to develop and enhance your career, not just through support and guidance offered at Watling, but also to work in collaboration with other schools in the Trust, is an inspiring benefit.
A non-selective, non-denominational, co-educational primary free school, Watling Park School welcomes children from all backgrounds. Opening in September 2015 with two Reception classes of 30 children, the school will grow organically to reach its capacity of 420 pupils.
Operated by Bellevue Place Education Trust, the school offers a broad and balanced curriculum with specific focus on literacy and numeracy. We focus on high academic attainment, and employ innovative pedagogical approaches delivered by the finest teaching staff.
Our belief is that children learn best when they are happy and excited by what’s happening in the classroom; excellent achievements will be a by-product of the education on offer and not the only goal. Our aim is to instil a love of learning in our pupils and provide a solid foundation to build on, in the transition to secondary education and beyond.
At Watling Park School the education we offer ensures that every pupil achieves confidence and success through high quality educational experiences, with a broad, balanced and enriching curriculum that has an emphasis on core learning and a key focus on ICT. At Watling Park, the pupils develop the ability to communicate in an intelligent, articulate and confident manner. The pupils learn in a stimulating, safe and welcoming environment with first class educational experiences from which they will thrive.
Our ultimate aim is to instill a love for learning and a desire to be motivated to enable the pupils to become proud of their achievements and become responsible future citizens.
Education at Watling Park School is for life. It is the aim that each student will leave the school, not only with the best possible educational attainment, particularly in the basic skills of literacy and numeracy, but also with the skills and attitudes needed to succeed and achieve fulfilment in a changing world and to make a positive contribution as responsible and valuable members of society.
Through Watling Park School’s high expectations for all children’s learning, there is a strong moral purpose and a unique ethos of warmth and respect to educate children who:
