Welcome

Welcome to Ranskill Primary:

A 'Take Care' school, where we take care of ourselves, each other, the world and with our work

 

We are a busy and friendly village school, with lots going on. This website aims to give you a taster of the school's life and ethos, as well as providing up to date information for parents, pupils and the wider community.

 

At Ranskill Primary School you will find a warm, vibrant and welcoming atmosphere where staff and children have a positive and ambitious outlook. We are dedicated to all of our pupils and their families, as well as to being a ‘Take Care’ school. We have an ethos of providing a wide range of opportunities through our curriculum and enrichment activities to enable the profound personal development of every child so that they can achieve ‘Beyond Expectations’.

 

We have very high expectations of ourselves and of the children and we constantly strive to ‘be the very best that we can be’ in all that we do. We are proud of our pupils' academic outcomes as well as their achievements in every aspect of their lives, both in and out of school. We promote our ‘Take Care Values’ at every opportunity and celebrate when we see these being actively demonstrated.

 

As headteacher, I personally believe that the success of our school and our children has its foundation in the partnership between parents, carers, families, the local community and the school. This strong partnership is open and supportive, putting the child at the centre of all we do. As we encourage children to take care of themselves, each other, the world and with their work, this in turn helps them to understand who they are but more importantly who they can become as they learn and grow.

 

We hope that you enjoy your visit to our website, and that you find the information you are looking for. Please feel free to contact the school directly with any queries you may have. We encourage anyone interested in joining Ranskill to visit us so that you can see and feel the essence of our school for yourself.
