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.

🐝 What a fantastic beekeeping session this week!
The children have been learning all about the role of the queen bee, and today helped transfer our growing colony into a larger hive. We were incredibly lucky to spot the queen bee herself 👑🐝
Did you know our Moorland hive is now home to approximately 10,000 bees? A thriving colony and an amazing opportunity for real-life learning. 🍯

To launch their new English unit on curating information booklets about camping, the children were introduced to a mystery bag filled with different camping-related objects. They loved making predictions and guessing what each item might be used for! 🏕️
The children then headed outside and worked together to put up a large four-person tent. They worked incredibly hard, showing fantastic teamwork, communication, and problem-solving skills throughout the challenge. Miss Sunshine was super proud of them all!
To finish the session, the children climbed inside the tent and settled down to read a few pages from their new class book while listening to the rain outside. It was such a cosy and exciting way to begin their new English topic. 📚✨
A wonderful start to what promises to be an engaging unit of learning! We can’t wait to see their end products 🌧️🏕️📖

🐦🔬 Our oldest pupils had a fantastic time exploring adaptations in Science!
The children took part in a fun bird beak investigation to discover how different beak shapes are adapted to collect different types of food. There were lots of laughs, teamwork, challenges and brilliant scientific thinking throughout the lesson!
A great hands-on way to understand how animals adapt to survive in their habitats. 🌍✨

A lovely afternoon at Holden Clough Nurseries with our enthusiastic year 1 & 2 children for our Forest School Trip🌿🌸
The children had such a wonderful time exploring the colourful flowers and plants around the garden centre. It was fantastic to hear them linking their learning from our Science lessons on plants, spotting different flowers and talking about what plants need to grow healthy and strong.
Thank you @holden_clough_nurseries

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.
