Our primary school is organised around our children to provide vibrant classrooms that are typified by enjoyment, engagement, discovery, and curiosity.
Our aim is for all students to be able to experience wonder and excitement and we encourage them to take risks whilst developing their skills in becoming independent learners and further growing their personal responsibility.
The curriculum at PCS has been carefully envisioned to provide outstanding educational opportunities that will challenge, activate, stimulate and celebrate learning, allowing every student the best opportunity for them to reach their potential as both a learner and member of the wider community.
