What Makes Us Special?

Equality

“We believe in a world where everyone should be treated with respect, fairness and equity and as educators, we will actively work to combat all forms of racism that stand in the way of this belief.

We will educate our children and young people to recognise and reject racism and provide a safe environment for them to speak about and speak out against injustice.”

Sustainability

Why is Sustainability Important at Maryland?

At Maryland, our curriculum is truly cutting-edge — designed to inspire curiosity, foster innovation, and bring learning to life. We empower our pupils to tackle real-world challenges with creativity and confidence, embodying our school motto: Where our children’s future matters most.

Pupil Voice

Pupil voice is at the heart of all that we do. Our Head Students are elected through a hustings at the end of each year. They have a varied role, leading assemblies, being role models, showing visitors around, working the leadership team and board of governors. The School Council, from Years 2–6, meet regularly to discuss school matters and share pupil views with the senior leadership team and our board of governors.

Our Nursery

Our rich and stimulating learning environment provides memorable and unique experiences to enable children to understand the world and develop imagination.

Our early introduction to phonics through the Read Write Inc. programme ensures children make excellent progress in literacy and have a head start when starting school.
