Moorings Way Infant School

Moorings Way Infant School offers a beautiful and natural environment for children to thrive within the city of Portsmouth.

We believe the foundations of a child’s education are laid during these early years and it is therefore crucial that every child feels successful, valued and safe at school.

At Moorings Way, we have high expectations for every child. We believe that every lesson matters, which is why they are delivered to our pupils in an interactive and engaging way, focused on motivating pupils to think and learn. Our expansive outdoor space allows us to enrich our curriculum offer.

We can provide opportunities for growing and producing our own fruit and vegetables, links with Beach and Forest Schools, field sports and areas for children to develop friendships and play in a natural environment. The joint work of the Meon Way Federation ensures a smooth transition into Meon Junior school and builds on our strong sense of togetherness.
