Welcome to our School profile. Timbercroft Primary School forms part of the Maritime Academy Trust, a multi-academy trust that is committed to making sure that education is meaningful.
Our Trust is made up of 11 primary schools located in Greenwich, Bexley and Kent. Though our schools may be different with their own in-school culture and community spirit, they all work harmoniously and collaboratively together within a curriculum that ensures each and every child is being equipped with leadership and life skills. At Maritime, we do this by empowering schools to drive more meaningful and enjoyable outcomes for children by having great people working for us, who commit to working hard to make an impact whatever the school and whatever the role.
Timbercroft Primary is a two form entry school from Nursery to Year year olds), which each phase based in one of four buildings on a large site in a residential area. Our intake is diverse with over 36 languages being spoken and a wide range of educational needs catered for We are committed to ensuring that the children of Plumstead grow into amazing, polite, respectful, well-behaved and confident young people.
Our Timbercroft teachers and support staff work brilliantly together to create a sense of family amongst the children and their parents and carers alike. By establishing such strong relationships, we ensure that the children are happy – but also challenged. We encourage risk taking and resilience in all our children, so much so, that our feedback from feeder secondary schools is always positive: 'Children who arrive at secondary school are more than well equipped for the next stage of their journey, educationally and in their wellbeing' - Plumstead Manor, 2020
We believe learning should be exciting - our ultimate aim is to provide a highly enjoyable, enhanced curriculum which not only incorporates the National Curriculum but the needs, thoughts and ideas of every learner in our school. Our revised curriculum ensures that all of our pupils are motivated, engaged and enthused about every learning experience, inspiring them to become lifelong learners developing their cultural capital for the world in which we all live. The design of the curriculum takes into account the needs of all pupils, values their diversity and allows them to make excellent progress within their learning. Children work towards an exciting exit point which we call our 'Big Outcomes' where they can share their learning with parents and friends of the school. Big outcomes encourage entrepreneurial skills, giving children an opportunity to apply their knowledge and understanding, contextualising their learning.
The children and adults at Timbercroft have high expectations of behaviour and as a community we all work together to ensure that the school environment is positive and safe for all. We are an IQM Centre of Excellence and Flagship School for Inclusion and we are very proud of our wonderful friendly caring committed staff and children.

We follow the Principles of Inclusion to promote equality, access, opportunity and the rights of children and staff in education and care and strive to reduce discrimination against them. This is not just with SEND, we follow this for our families with English as an additional language, ethnic minority groups, our vulnerable and disadvantaged, children with anxiety or mental health difficulties and ensure groups do not experience unconscious bias in the classroom so that all teaching and learning is adapted to support and challenge all children.
