Primary School
Boroughbridge Community Primary School
The school is situated in substantial grounds on the town's outskirts on York
Road.
The spacious accommodation includes 8 class bases with joint activity areas,
library, two halls (one equipped as a gymnasium), kitchen, staffroom, school office
and Headteacher's room. There is an extensive sports field with playgrounds and
wildlife areas and a small outdoor heated swimming pool on the site. There is
also Stepping Stones Nursery which provides full day care for children from 3
months old as well as wrap around care for children in the school nursery and
before and after school care.
The main school has about 200 children on roll. In addition to this there is
a 26 place nursery unit which is housed in the newly developed Little Oaks Foundation
Stage Unit. Children are admitted to the nursery unit on a part-time basis at
the age of three, and enter the main school as rising-fives. At the age of eleven,
children normally transfer to secondary school.
The school is very well supported by the local community. Parents particularly
are welcomed into school, and their help is encouraged and valued. There is a
thriving Parent-Teachers' Association and parents are actively involved in fundraising.
It is through their help that the school has managed to provide a computer suite
and new staging facilities for the numerous productions that take place during
the school year.
School Mission Statement
Happy- independent - learning
Achievement - respect - discipline
Encouragement - caring - rewarding
Partnership - Quality
Aim High
Give us your best
We aim to ensure that our school is a happy place where children learn respect
for each other and their surroundings. Every child is given the opportunity to
be successful through a broad balanced curriculum. We are committed to helping
our children become independent learners who are self-motivated and find learning
rewarding, interesting and fun. They are encouraged to aim high, to give their
best and to be proud of their progress and their achievements. In a calm and
caring disciplined environment they are taught to be responsible and well behaved.
It is our aim that children grow to be confident and cheerful adults who have
the capacity to be adaptable and creative in an ever changing world. We aim to
provide quality in all we do. We are committed to working in partnership with
parents and the wider community to create a school of which Boroughbridge can
justifiably be proud.
