Ramsden Infants is part of the Central Barrow Schools Federation with Greengate Junior School. At Ramsden we understand the importance of giving children the very best start in life. We hold the children's personal development and general welfare in high regard.
Emphasis is placed on English and Maths but we learn all subjects through an exciting and enriched curriculum, promoting positive attitudes to work and behaviour and a love of learning. We welcome parents and carers to work with us in the best interests of the children.
