Welcome to Stanmore Primary School
I am proud to be the Headteacher of this rapidly improving Primary School. For me, there are key goals for primary education: inspiring learning, recognising the potential of every individual, working in partnership and equipping children with the personal keys to success that will help them navigate the challenges of life.
At Stanmore, our shared vision; ‘Be the BEST that you can be’ encapsulates these goals.
Belonging - At our school, everyone is welcomed every day as a valued member of an inclusive community, where everyone feels safe, secure and happy.
Excellence - We set no limits on what can be learned or who is able to learn.
Support - We celebrate achievements and help people when they need support.
Trust - Our children develop a sense of trust in themselves to make positive choices and positive contributions.
A curriculum that is purposeful and irresistible in meeting the needs of all the children at Stanmore is central to achieving this. The curriculum is what makes a school unique and we are passionate about developing an interesting, relevant and innovative curriculum. Belonging to our local and wider community enhances our curriculum, promotes aspiration and provides the building blocks that Stanmore children need to succeed in life.
Some of the latest outcomes of our irresistible learning can be seen below, or explored further in our news section.
High expectations of attainment and progress are for every child, including the most vulnerable. In my experience, raising standards is also about knowing and caring about something important to your child. This is central to my role as Headteacher and a priority for our committed team of teachers and support staff. We are skilled at developing a strong rapport, recognising what a child might need to unlock their potential.
Our children have a voice which they use actively to contribute to our improvement journey. Our House Captains and pupil ambassadors are the best advocates for our school. They are proud to belong and excited to be at the forefront of an exciting time of change at Stanmore Primary. You are welcome to visit to hear more about what they and we love about our school.
