The school is infectious. It’s a fantastic place to work. What makes it so special? We have a positive ‘can do’ ethos where the staff, pupils and parents all work together to help our children reach their potential. Because of this, we are a very popular school. We have grown from 230 to 330 pupils, from eight classes to twelve, and we have had numerous staff additions.
We are a happy school. When the children were asked reasons for coming to school, one of the top responses was: ‘…to have fun!’ We want children to enjoy their time at Barugh Green and look back in later years with fondness and happy memories. We derive tremendous satisfaction when ex-pupils return and use the phrase: ‘I remember when….’

I love the school and the pupils, it makes me want to get up every day and take part and get involved in providing the best lessons and experiences for the children. The children are the main priority and putting their needs first and getting them experiencing things that will stick with them for life is what is the key element for me. Getting to teach and see children enjoying school sport and school in general is the best part about my role within school.
Our Sports premium money is well spent with Team Activ as they consistently provide a full and varied sporting calendar for the whole year aimed at all children regardless of their physical and mental abilities. If a parent asks me what High View is doing for my child’s physical enjoyment of school life I believe that as a Team Activ member I can answer confidently and positively. Every child has the right to an active, healthy and happy education whichever school they are at; does your child? Because they should!”
