Welcome to First Tower school.

We are a two-form entry primary school with a 40 place nursery on the edge of St Helier town. I am honoured to be the headteacher of this fantastic school and am constantly amazed with the many successes that our children achieve throughout their time at First Tower School. We aim for every child to grow into a confident, resilient learner who has a thirst for learning and a love of their community and beautiful island.

We believe that all children will become effective lifelong learners if they possess the skills and attributes that will help them develop a growth mindset and an ability to keep going even if they find things difficult; this is reflected in our vision: Together…we respect, we learn, we persevere.

Our curriculum is designed to enrich the lives of our children. We choose interesting topics. Plans are constantly adapted and tweaked to meet the needs and the interests of the pupils in order to engage and enable our learners to do the best learning they can.

Safeguarding our children is extremely important to us. We take great care in making sure that our policies reflect our practice and procedures. We are a nurturing school and follow and embed the principles of nurture in our practice and policies. We put the children at the centre of all of our decision making for the development of our school.

First Tower is a special place, we welcome you to visit so we can share our passion for teaching and learning with you. Our staff have an open-door policy and you will always be welcome here.
