A warm welcome to Solihull Junior School! We aspire to inspire!
We pride ourselves in nurturing children's varied abilities from age 7 to age 11 in pursuit of excellence and fun. Our children are very special to us and we aim to help them to flourish in all spheres in a caring and lively environment. We believe every child is an individual, with unique abilities and needs and we get the very best out of them, in small classes with a team of dedicated teachers.
We have an excellent record of gaining academic scholarships into the senior school, and many have won awards for music as well. The outstanding success of our sports teams and the quality of our music and drama are second to none. We offer a rich variety of activities to suit all children, from sport to music and from drama to our unique cub pack. Our own facilities have been purpose-built to include a separate hall, a well-stocked library, a state of the art computer suite, a science room with cooking facilities, an impressive art room and a dedicated design and technology room.
Additionally, being on the same site, we enjoy the benefit of using all the extensive faciliites of the senior school, which gives us a range unrivalled in any local school. The main Bushell Hall has been the site for Mathematics video conferences as well as our drama and music events. The onsite sports facilities include a fully-equipped sports hall, indoor swimming pool and astroturf pitch as well as the extensive playing fields. We have our own play area, safely close to the school buildings as well as access to the wider campus of the school. The excellence of our music is enhanced by the team of specialist teachers who serve the school as a whole offering individual music lessons in any instrument and a wide range of ensemble activities.
All this helps us to achieve our central objective of educating the whole child and developing confident and happy pupils.
