In our recent (Feb 2010) inspection the ISI inspectors found that “The school aims to offer a stimulating and interesting environment which will give children a sense of adventure and a desire to discover things for themselves which can be applied to life’s challenges, so that they can understand and find ways of overcoming problems. It strives to be a caring community where pupils are appreciated, and helped to see that everyone has a special value and great fulfilment can be gained by contributing to the well-being of others.” To read more and download the full report click here.

At our open morning in 2007 we put together a video highlighting some of the activities and events that happen in the life of the school. We think it gives a taste of what the Firs School community is about. We hope you enjoy it.
