High quality teaching and learning allows our pupils to develop firm roots, from which to grow as individuals and as learners, and wings to fly, through promoting limitless learning. To support teaching and learning across the curriculum, we also use Social Emotional Aspects of Learning (SEAL) and the learning powers from the Effective Life Long Inventory (ELLI).
Alexander Hosea Primary School, established in 1684 and formerly named the Endowed School, is the only school in Wickwar. It has a long and interesting history. Alexander Hosea was a weaver who lived in the village. In pursuit of wealth, he travelled to London where he made a fortune through the hostelries he bought.
In South Gloucestershire, children start school in the September before their fifth birthday. It is important that you submit your application on time. The school has 30 places available in Reception. Alternatively an in-year admission application form is available from the School. This also has to be returned to the Admissions Department at South Gloucestershire Council.
The Pupil Premium is allocated to schools and they decide how this is spent. Schools are held accountable for how they spend the Pupil Premium to support pupils who receive this extra funding. The aim of the funding is to tackle disadvantage and to narrow / close the gap in attainment where this exists.
At Alexander Hosea our vision is, 'roots to grow, wings to fly'. Our curriculum has been developed to support our vision and values. We are committed to 'Learning without Limits'. This means we believe that there is more in everyone than we think. We want children to have the self-belief and aspire to do great things.
