Meon Infant School, Meon Junior School and Moorings Way Infant School have joined forces to become Meon Way Federation. We have a highly motivated and talented team and children are encouraged to become confident, caring and articulate and to use their abilities to the full. We provide an atmosphere, which enables the children to acquire a wide range of knowledge, skills and practical abilities.
At Moorings Way Infant School our vision is to provide an engaging, inspiring and relevant curriculum in which all children make excellent progress and feel valued. All children are taught strategies to support their own cognitive development and encourage independence and problem solving. Our committed and experienced staff ensure that children are exposed to learning experiences in which they can flourish.
“It is a happy and harmonious community where pupils from a wide and diverse range of backgrounds get on admirably." - Ofsted
