Welcome Note

Welcome to Safa Community School which is driven by student voice and ownership. Where we treat every child as a unique individual whose ideas, opinions and questions are valued and drive the direction of the school.

Through child led learning experiences, our learners grow to be passionate, caring human beings who show empathy and respect for others and the world around them. As a forward thinking school, environmental education is embedded in our curriculum, which enables and inspires children to make a difference in the world, by making sustainable and innovative choices.

Our dedicated staff are encouraged and supported to provide high quality learning experiences which ignites a passion for learners to be: scientists, mathematicians, engineers, authors, leaders, advocates, artists, musicians and sports people.

Primary Overview

At SCS we follow the National Curriculum of England, and the primary school is broken into two key stages: Key Stage 1 (Year 1 and 2) and Key Stage 2 (Year 3 – 6). Our creative, child led curriculum is designed around overarching concepts, which provide students with real life context that integrates and connects all curriculum areas. As a school, we ensure that we offer a consistent and seamless progression as the children transition across the different phases throughout the primary school.
