Welcome to Whitwell Primary School's Website!

I hope that you will enjoy browsing our pages and will find the information contained in them both informative and useful.

At Whitwell, we value all our children as individuals. Developing the whole child is important to us and that aim is reflected in all we do. Our aim is to ‘…build a school that all members of our community feel proud of’; this includes children, staff, parents, governors and anyone who comes into contact with our school. We have lots to be proud of and want everyone to share this with us.

We have high expectations of everyone in our school community. We challenge and support children so that they can learn and achieve together in a caring environment.

We are proud of our achievements and in the diversity of activities we provide for the children. We believe that the opportunities we provide for children are rich, varied and stimulating. We have a wide range of extra curricular activities, including our breakfast club and after schools club.

It is our aim, in partnership with parents, to help our children enjoy their time at Primary School, be happy, feel secure and achieve the very best they can. We promote high academic standards whilst fostering creativity and imagination. We encourage the children to be self-motivated learners and develop personally and socially.

We welcome parents and friends of the school to work alongside the children and to celebrate and share their success and achievements.

Thanks for visiting our website.

Mr Vic Wilkinson – Headteacher.
