Welcome to Kegworth Primary School and to our school website! ' Together we will be our best! ' At Kegworth Primary School we are: Kind, Enthusiastic, Ambitious, Welcoming, Optimistic, Resilient, Tolerant and Honest. At Kegworth Primary School, we aim for all our children to become lifelong learners.
Through our critical thinking approach to learning, we want our pupils to think for themselves and become independent, positive and proactive members of our community. In order to do this, knowledge and skills are carefully sequenced to enable our children to build on their learning; so they know more and remember more.
As well as building on their knowledge and skills, we support them in understanding the importance of, and using, our school values to achieve their full potential across the entire curriculum and beyond.
