Part of the Family
Pocklington Junior School provides an enjoyable, happy and friendly atmosphere where each child is valued as an individual. We nurture a love of learning for all children to reach their potential and flourish in an enriched learning environment.
We have a strong desire to challenge ourselves and succeed
We treat others how we would like to be treated
We are resilient and work hard to achieve our goals
We each have our own strengths to reach our individual potential
At Pocklington Junior School, we understand the vital role that reading plays in allowing children to fully access the wider world and is the skill which opens doors for learners and allows them to see their world through the pages of their books. It is for this reason that we put reading at the forefront of our curriculum and are committed to fostering a love for reading through both the reading curriculum and the wider curriculum that we offer.
Our school has community at heart. Our strong relationship with our parents, carers and the wider community adds to our success in instilling a love of learning.
Pocklington Junior School is part of The Wonder Learning Partnership Educational Trust. The Trust’s vision is to build a foundation ensuring all our schools have the strategies, expertise and capacity they need to improve the education of our children. Our schools are a family with shared values who support each other, work collegiately and each maintain their own governing body. Our children have access to personalised tuition and our colleagues to tailored professional development. We are incredibly proud of what we achieve as a family.
Leading Pocklington Junior School is not just a privilege – it’s a cherished connection to my own community. The children and staff here are nothing short of amazing, and their dedication makes every day a rewarding one.
