Welcome
Welcome to Valley Invicta Primary School at Leybourne Chase.
At Leybourne Chase we chase our dreams, inspire others and achieve all.
Our values – excellence, resilience and self-belief – are at the heart of everything we do at Leybourne Chase. We give each of these values equal weighting and through a knowledge-rich curriculum, engaging teaching, great relationships and strong partnerships, we work hard to ensure that Leybourne Chase is the best possible primary school experience for every child.
Our parents are integral to the children's progress, we have built up a unique relationship with them and they take an active part in their children's learning. We encourage close and regular contact with them and they value this relationship.
Our curriculum is carefully designed by subject leaders to ensure children move on to the next stage of their education with the language, knowledge and experience to show a broad and deep understanding of each subject. Children begin learning about the world around them, what has come before and the importance of writing in order to be able to change the world for the better in the future.
Alongside the academic and creative learning, we want our children to be happy while with us and to develop a wellbeing strategies to use throughout their lives. Our approach is built around the importance of self-knowledge and then having the right words to describe a feeling, its cause and if desirable, how to feel better. Alongside this, children are given responsibilities, choices, a voice and the opportunity to lead. The UNICEF rights of the child are ‘lived’ throughout the school and as such, we were designated a UNICEF Rights Respecting Gold School in November 2022.
We are proud to be part of Valley Invicta Academies Trust. The collaboration between the group of schools, alongside the support from the central team, enables all our colleagues to be the best professionals they can be. Through the Trust, our children are given many opportunities, beyond the curriculum, including sporting events, creative workshops and performing with children from across the Trust
'Expectations are very high, and pupils respond exceptionally well. Their behaviour and attitudes to leaning are exemplary, and consequently they achieve highly.' Ofsted, February 2024.
