Federation of Mowden Schools (Academy Trust)
The Federation of Mowden Schools, consisting of Mowden Infant School and Mowden Junior School, became an academy trust in June 2012. Whilst situated in separate buildings, both the Infant and Junior schools are on the same large site and we consider ourselves one school, with one headteacher, governing body and staff working closely together to achieve the best results for the children.
The school is situated in the west end of Darlington, occupying a large site in the heart of an estate of private housing. Both schools have recently undergone extensive renovation with new classrooms added to allow us to move from 2 to 3 form entry, which started with our Reception year in September 2013. We currently have over 500 children on roll from 4 years up to 11 years of age.
We take pride in our school and all our staff work hard to make it a welcoming place set in attractive surroundings. We aim to provide our pupils with a friendly environment where they feel secure and are able to develop their full potential.
Our Motto…
Learning in Partnership
We believe that everyone should contribute to the ethos of our schools; all staff, pupils, helpers, governors and parents work together to enable all children to achieve their potential.
Aims of the Federation
- To create a learning community that challenges and supports
- To provide a caring environment where each individual is able to flourish
- To nurture confident, independent children
- To promote respect for all people, regardless of ability, religion, race or background
- To be aspirational, stimulating, happy, friendly and purposeful
- To forge links with the wider community and teach the children an awareness of their role in the outside world
