Headteacher's Welcome
Thank you for taking the time to visit our website - we hope it gives you a real sense of the warmth, ambition and community spirit that make our school so special.
We are a friendly, two-form entry primary school, proudly serving the Canterbury estate in Bradford. As part of Exceed Academies Trust, we’re lucky to work alongside other successful schools, sharing expertise to give every child the very best start in life.
At Horton Park, we care deeply about each and every child. Our dedicated staff team works hard to help children flourish academically, socially and emotionally. We want them to leave us not only with strong foundations for learning, but also with the confidence, character and curiosity to succeed in the wider world.
If you're considering our school for your child, or just want to find out more, please don't hesitate to get in touch, we’d love to welcome you in person.
'Everyone Learns To Succeed'
We are Successful
Everything we teach promotes an enjoyment of learning through creativity and curiosity. The curriculum builds on and provides rich opportunities which embed resilience, confidence, and independence. An ambitious mindset with high expectations of everyone, benefits our diverse, thriving community today and in the future.
We Communicate Effectively
We want children to learn effective communication skills, which can be applied in a variety of social interactions with a diverse range of people. This helps children to understand the emotion and intentions behind the information they are sharing and enables them to relate better to people with cultural differences. These key skills deepen connections, have a clear purpose and allow children to be more reflective. We ensure that ALL pupils acquire a wide vocabulary, communicate effectively and build on foundations for future learning.
We Experience Opportunities
Learning opportunities and rich experiences provided to our children enables them to broaden their horizons and make positive life choices. These experiences extend thinking, promote problem-solving and encourage children to take risks and become more confident as individuals. Such opportunities support our children in being aware of the aspirational possibilities available to them now and in the future.
We are Inclusive
Everyone strives to ensure all children and families are welcomed and valued, and that they get the right support to help them develop their talents, life skills and achieve their aspirational goals. This collaborative approach supports the well-being of children and embeds a strong sense of belonging. At Horton Park our inclusive ethos ensures all children are respected, treated fairly and differences are celebrated and valued.
We work together to provide every child with a brilliant start to their school life and recognise that parental engagement is key to the success of our children. At Horton Park Primary, we involve parents and other agencies as partners in the learning process.
We are extremely proud of our school and our achievements. If you would like to visit us, please contact the school office.
