iWritten by WhatSchool from official school data (Get Information about Schools, DfE and Ofsted).Welcome to Linton Primary School Welcome to Linton Primary School. We are a very small school located in the village of Linton in Northumberland, which provides academic and pastoral provision for children from Nursery to Year 6. We have a spacious and secure building set in grounds with two large play areas, an enclosed Early Years Garden and a Forest School Camp.
We also have access to playing fields and a play park directly outside the school gates. Being "Intentionally Inclusive" is at the heart of everything we do, and we consistently strive for a balance between high expectations for children's academic attainment, progress and potential, as well as their personal and social development.
We recognise children as unique individuals with specific talents and needs and aim to provide a nurturing environment where every child can flourish. A high proportion of our children have additional needs, many having moved to our school due to its smaller size, bespoke approach and commitment to inclusivity.
We are thankfully blessed with a dedicated staff team who strive to provide the very best for our children and their families. Visits are encouraged and warmly welcomed: the children, staff and I would be delighted to show you around our small, but perfectly formed school.
