King Edwin Primary School offers a rich, varied and inclusive learning experience which covers every aspect of a child's development, extending well beyond the classroom and reaching out into our local and global communities. Our school Vision represents the very essence of King Edwin Primary School.
Written and developed by children, staff, parents and governors; our vision underpins all that we are and aspire to be. We are all part of a close school community committed to ensuring that King Edwin is a caring and inclusive school where children develop a love of learning which will stay with them for the rest of their lives.
We believe in providing an engaging, challenging and creative education within a safe, nurturing environment. By developing children's self-esteem, independence, resilience and motivation our children are able to grow, learn and achieve together.
This is a school where children are encouraged to 'dream big' and follow their dreams, safe in the knowledge that we are fully behind them every step of the way. Our vision becomes reality because all stakeholders at KEPS are fully engaged and emotionally invested in realising our vision.
