Manor Farm Junior School is proud to be part of the Great Learners Trust. The Great Learners Trust (GLT) was established in 2014 in Buckinghamshire with the aim of promoting exceptional learning. We are now a dynamic group of 9 primary schools, working generously in collaboration to provide the best possible education for our children. Trust schools are diverse and unique; this individuality is underpinned by common principles, a shared ambition and a commitment to working closely together. Belonging to the Trust enables schools to focus on the essential work of delivering excellent teaching and learning. The Trust provides high quality school improvement expertise and frameworks for school leaders and governors, including strategic planning, financial and estates management, operations, recruitment and policy development. 

What is Special About Our School?

Our school is a two-form entry junior school based in Hazlemere, High Wycombe. We have 231 pupils on roll currently, a determined staff and fantastic children who are all striving to improve and develop. We are based on the Manor Farm estate and the school is the centre of the community, sharing a site with the Infant School and a Nursery. Our school has a real community feel and this is something that any aspiring applicant will need to ensure they can relate to and help to develop.

Our School Vision and Values

Whether pupil or staff member, and regardless of starting point, background, individual needs, interests or aspirations, Manor Farm Junior School will:

● stimulate your curiosity about the world and ensure you are equipped to reach your full potential,

● welcome you into a community you feel part of and are proud to share with others

● give you the confidence to do the right thing and the resilience you need to achieve your dreams.

We will do this within a happy and safe environment and with a relentless drive to do the best for everyone, together, as a team.

Our School Ethos

At Manor Farm we believe:

● that good decisions are based on solid research and understanding. We strive to learn from others, value feedback and push ourselves to do better,

● that being a good person is the only way to be. We listen to each other, support others’ needs and work hard to do what’s right, even when it’s difficult,

● that our differences make us what we are, and we all have our own paths to walk. We never give up, we do our best and know that anything is possible.

Our school motto – love School, love learning – describes how we want our pupils to feel as a result of our dedication to these aims. It was written by a Year 6 pupil during our last ‘Have Your Say Day’ and we are very proud of it.
