A very warm welcome from everyone at West Bridgford Infant School! We are a happy, caring learning community where the wellbeing and development of every child and member of staff is central to our vision. We are very proud of the family atmosphere in our school and the high achievements of our children.
Our staff are hard working, and dedicated to providing children with creative, exciting learning opportunities which enable them to achieve their best. We understand that your children are your most treasured possessions and aim to uphold the uniqueness of every child, whilst ensuring they are safe, happy, healthy and able to achieve their full potential.
Our goal is to enable children to develop as rounded individuals who love learning and are equipped with skills for life which will enable them to be fulfilled, active citizens. We believe strongly in developing supportive partnerships with parents to ensure we are meeting the needs of each child to enable them to flourish in our school.
To this end we operate an open door policy. We also have good relationships with local community organisations and are keen to involve our children in community events.
