Keinton Mandeville Primary School is an inclusive, thriving, rural school; we educate over 150 children in a broad, balanced and creative curriculum. We pride ourselves on enabling every child to achieve their potential, whatever that potential may be. Our Core Values encourage children to become independent learners, working with determination and energy towards their goals.
We encourage a growth-mindset and harness the power of yet to help us with this. Don't think I can't do that; think I can't do that, yet! Pupils behaviour is impeccable. Leaders ensure that pupils are tolerant, kind and caring. They have high regard for promoting equality and acceptance throughout the school. Pupils develop a strong sense of right and wrong.
