Welcome to Malden Manor Primary School

Welcome to Malden Manor, where our aim is to provide an educational experience of the highest quality for all the children in our care. By creating an inclusive and stimulating learning environment, we seek to capture pupils’ interest, extend their knowledge and raise their aspirations. Our teaching and learning is designed to bring learning to life, both in the classroom and through a variety of inspiring experiences in the wider community. In line with our objective of being the best we can be, we encourage children to take an active role in their education, developing the skills they need for independent learning. Parental involvement is vital for children to achieve their best so it is encouraged at every stage of learning.

Malden Manor is a vibrant and welcoming community in which we strive for the highest standards of attainment – whether academic, artistic or sporting. We find and nurture hidden talents, celebrating the strengths of every child.

Our expectations in terms of both learning and behaviour are high and the children respond with delightful enthusiasm, politeness and consideration for others. Our broad curriculum and rich programme of extra-curricular activities – including the popular breakfast and after-school clubs – provide a well-rounded education, supported by excellent pastoral care. Together with my team of dedicated staff and governors, I invite you to visit the school to see for yourself the fantastic opportunities it offers your child.

ART Intent

Art lessons at Malden Manor are based on six practical elements-drawing, painting, printing, textiles, 3D and collage.


Most lessons are practical, with the study of artists and their work integral to the majority of themes and activities taught. We learn about a variety of artists from the past such as Degas, Picasso and Lichtenstein, but we also focus on contemporary artists such as Michael Brennand-Wood and Chris Ofili.


Children will experience working with a wide variety of mediums including-watercolour and poster paint, oil and chalk pastels, clay, modroc, collage materials such as tissue paper, newsprint, fabrics and metallic items, and textile materials such as felt, ribbons and threads.
