Infant School

Our School

We hope that our website will give you an insight into the friendly, welcoming and fun world of learning at Garrick Green. 

We pride ourselves on our high standards, warm atmosphere, community spirit and on our pupils' highly positive and enthusiastic approach to learning and to achieving their potential. We treat all children as individuals, recognising that they all start school with differing strengths, attitudes and experiences and that they all learn and progress at different rates and in different ways. We are passionate above giving each individual child the best opportunity to develop in their own way, both socially and academically. 

Above all, we want all of our children to enjoy school and to develop a thirst for learning.

At Garrick Green, our vision is for children to learn to be happy and to be happy to learn - please come along to visit the school and see for yourselves what we have to offer!

School Organisation

Garrick Green Infant School is an academy in the Wensum Trust. We cater for pupils of four to seven years old. The arrangement of classes varies from year to year depending on numbers but we try to work with single year group classes. Parents need to be aware that mixed age classes are sometimes necessary in order to keep class sizes at 30 or below.

The children are in the care of a class teacher and teaching assistants who have the responsibility for their wellbeing. Children needing extra help are catered for within the classroom using the expertise of Norfolk’s Learning Support Services as and when required.
