On behalf of myself and governors, I wish you a very warm Welcome to Chandler's Ford Infant School. I am delighted to introduce you to our wonderful school, where children are at the heart of everything we do.
At Chandler's Ford Infant School we are proud to provide a nurturing, inclusive and stimulating environment where every child is supported to thrive academically, socially, and emotionally. We believe that learning should be exciting, challenging and enjoyable and we love to celebrate our inclusive environment where each child develops confidence and curiosity.
We are guided by our strapline 'Caring now for future success' in order to enable the children to become lifelong learners. We do more than simply educate the children; we create memories for life. Our school community is built on strong relationships and mutual respect. Our parents often comment on our strong 'family feel', inclusivity and approachability of staff.
As one parent put it ' Staff are incredibly visible and approachable and understand the importance of the development of the child as a whole'. We celebrate individuality and encourage kindness, respect and resilience in all that we do.
