Knighton Mead is in the heart of Leicester City. We are proud of our links with the local community, including Community Wishes, Kaleidoscope, local places of worship, Saffron Wombles, Leicester City Football Club and Leicester Cricket Club. Each half term, every class enjoys a trip, workshop or visitor, which helps make learning fun and exciting. We also have a specialist dance teacher, and we offer many free clubs after school.

Children only get one chance at their education and so we want Knighton Mead to be the best that it can be. Our curriculum helps to develop the whole child, not just their academic skills.

Our Four Core Values:

• Character Development – we use Character Muscles to help children learn how to be kind, thoughtful and respectful members of our community.
• Contribution to the Community – children learn how to be positive global citizens. They help lead school events, join clubs, and take part in fundraising for local and national charities.
• Behaviours for Learning – through FAST learning, we teach children how to stay focused, ready to learn, and able to challenge themselves.
• Communication with All – we follow Everyone’s Welcome, helping children understand and respect the diverse world around them. Speaking, listening and learning how to communicate clearly are at the heart of our teaching.

Your child’s safety and wellbeing are our top priority. We want children to thrive, feel cared for and make good choices.

Our strong pastoral team makes sure all children feel:

• safe
• nurtured
• supported
• ready to learn
