We wish you a warm welcome to Paxton Primary School. Paxton is an inclusive and vibrant school, located at the heart of our local community. We value and celebrate our local ties, building strong partnerships with all our stakeholders.
Striving for the highest standards, we work to maintain a shared ethos of (ARC) achievement, respectfulness and caring, amongst our children, parents and staff. At Paxton, we affirm the boundless potential of every individual to achieve excellence. We seek to establish rich learning opportunities, which inspire progress, celebrate effort and challenge underachievement.
We are relentless in our efforts to remove barriers to all children achieving. We consider the well-being and empowerment of our children, as central to this aim. Our work is to ensure that Paxton children can identify examples of excellence around them and that they are able to recognise their own brilliance in these examples.
