Welcome to Maidenbower Infant School

Maidenbower Infant School was opened in 1992 as Maidenbower First School; we are now a three form Infant school for 4 – 7 year olds with a private nursery that has 32 places per session for children from the age of three.  We are lucky to have extensive grounds that provide a stimulating and exciting learning space outside that complements our indoor learning.

Our school motto is “What happens early, matters for a lifetime.”

At Maidenbower Infant School, we aim to create an inclusive, caring and challenging learning environment where all children thrive. We recognise the importance of providing children with a strong start to their schooling years, so that they can develop a lifelong love of learning. Our core belief is that “what happens early, matters for a lifetime”, therefore we ensure that our teaching and learning is the best it can be for all our children. We aim to develop children’s curious young minds and inspire them to learn about the world around them. We want our children to be respectful and kind individuals who help each other to reach their maximum potential. We support all children to be ambitious and achieve so that they are well prepared for their next stage of their education. Our values reflect our beliefs in developing the whole child and our school vision, curriculum and culture is demonstrated in everything we do.

RESPECTFUL, KIND, CURIOUS and AMBITIOUS

What some of parents feel about MIS!

'My daughter is happier here than any of my children have ever been at any other school. Every member of staff is kind, welcoming, understanding and supportive of both children and parents alike. The leadership is exemplary and you can tell that at Maidenbower Infants, unlike too many other schools now, the focus and priority is the children and that their  emotional and mental wellbeing comes before all else- just as it should be :) Thank you to all at the school for providing my child with so many great memories and experiences.'

'Having had another child go through the Infant School, I have seen how the school has improved immensely under the leadership of the new Headteacher. There are so many activities for the children to take part in and my child is making great progress.' 

'This is a wonderful school, which has thrived since the arrival of Mrs Roberts. The teachers and teaching assistants are wonderful, and it is clear to see that they really do ‘care’. I would recommend this school to anyone, and I’d like to take this opportunity to thank you all for taking  such good care of my daughters.'  

'We moved our son here last year from another school and it was the best decision that we have made. We wish that we had placed both of our children here originally.' 
 
 'My child has progressed immensely with phonics, speech and language, and confidence since attending this school.'
