Mornington Park Primary School our caring staff are committed to the development of the whole child academically, physically, socially and emotionally. Our philosophy is firmly based on the belief that within a stimulating, and caring environment, individual needs can be met to enable all students to reach their potential and that optimum development depends on self-confidence and self-esteem, cooperation with and consideration for others and an increasing capacity for self-reliance. In providing an outstanding curriculum, we are committed to the recognition of the individual.
This school is proud to offer two curriculum streams. We have a traditional education and one based on the educational philosophies of Rudolf Steiner. Parents have a choice about the type of education their child enters into.
We believe that a positive attitude towards learning is pivotal to success, and that accommodation of diverse styles of learning and acknowledgement of prior learning must underpin all successful curriculum planning. We are therefore committed to creating positive classroom climates, in which students are encouraged to take increasing responsibility for their own learning as they progress throughout the school, and in which risk-taking is encouraged in the pursuit of personal excellence.
