At Manston, we believe every child should feel safe, valued, and inspired to learn. Our dedicated team builds strong relationships with children and their families to ensure that everyone feels welcome, supported, and ready to thrive.
“Pupils happily attend this friendly community school. Each day, they are eager to see their friends and their teachers.”
We are proud to be recognised by Ofsted as a school where:
“Pupils are looked after by caring staff who know them and their families well.”
From Reception through to Year 6, we create an environment where pupils are excited to come to school each day, ready to learn, play and grow.
Our school motto – “Practise makes progress” – underpins everything we do. We know that children thrive when they are encouraged to try, reflect, and improve. We focus on developing confidence, resilience and independence at every stage of learning.
“Pupils are encouraged to be confident, resilient learners.”
We take pride in ensuring that every pupil receives the right support to flourish, whether academically, emotionally, or socially. No one is overlooked.
“No one is lost in the system. As a result, every pupil is ready for their next steps.”
Our vision, developed in partnership with staff and pupils, is simple and powerful:
Every child has the right to feel safe, valued, and able to learn
Every adult has the responsibility to protect, support and inspire
Children learn best when they are happy, supported and challenged to do their best
This shared ethos shapes our curriculum, our behaviour principles and our wider school life. At Manston, we celebrate kindness, creativity, respect, and personal growth.
