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.

✨ These are our Words of the Year. ✨
We’d love to hear yours…

From 9:00–10:30 each morning, our school comes alive with English. ✨📚📖✏️
Across every classroom today, children are writing sentences, crafting rich descriptions, painting superheroes they’ve imagined, learning new grammatical terms and sharing stories through reading with their teachers. 📝
Our whole-school 90-minute English session runs simultaneously each day, immersing children in language and nurturing confident, enthusiastic readers and writers. With our fantastic teachers, every child receives individualised support, guidance and challenge. 📚💛

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.
