Here at Redscope Primary School we believe in making sure that children have a whole host of experiences during their time at school from going for a walk in the woods, learning to swim, playing a musical instrument and going on residential. Whilst we have a wide curriculum with lots of exciting experiences, we believe that children succeed by mastering the basics of reading, writing and mathematics. Our core values are emotional literacy, creativity, basic skills and positive contribution.
