Welcome to St. Botolph’s Church of England Primary School |
Dear Parents and Carers
A warm welcome and thank you for your interest in and choosing our school for your son/daughter. St Botolph’s is a hard working and happy school. We have wonderful children and exceptional staff.
St Botolph’s School is a Church of England Controlled Primary School. We uphold Christian beliefs and have strong links with our local church, Holy Trinity. These Christian beliefs can be seen in our policies, in the daily life of our school and as we celebrate collective worship together.
Over the years the positive contributions of the children, staff, parents and governors have helped make St Botolph’s a happy and successful school. We believe both school and home have a critical part to play in the education process and that this partnership will only work if it is built upon mutual respect and co-operation. In school children are encouraged to achieve and to accept increasing responsibility. They develop a positive view of themselves, which is greatly enhanced by positive reinforcement of good behaviour and high standards of academic achievement, achieved within a rigorous but happy learning environment.
Here at St Botolph’s we emphasise the basic skills of literacy, numeracy and Information Communications Technology in order that your child is equipped for full access to the other subjects. Knowledge and skills are taught in a way that makes learning fun with a variety of teaching methods used including class, group and individual teaching. Opportunities are provided outside the classroom for children to participate in a range of extra-curricular activities and take part in school visits and inter-school events as well as dramatic productions. Music plays a strong part in school.
As well as aiming for high academic standards, we try to give our children opportunities and experiences which they will always remember, within a friendly and caring environment.
We hope that every child has a happy and rewarding school life at St Botolph’s and goes on to secondary education equipped and ready academically and socially.
Please visit our school and see our classrooms, ICT facilities, work areas and displays, but most important of all meet some of our children and experience their work and success first hand.
