Welcome to Willowbrook Primary School. It is my pleasure and privilege to be Head of this small school set in the heart of Trowbridge. Willowbrook is a loving, caring and inclusive community where we respect, appreciate and support each other and our environment.
Our dedicated staff have the highest aspirations for all our children and are committed to nurturing and developing children's learning. Each child is valued for their own talents, strengths and personality and we encourage the children to succeed and reach their potential, to have high self-esteem and a belief that they can achieve.
Teaching and learning is at the heart of our school and we believe that every child is entitled to a rich and inspiring education that will nurture them as well-rounded individuals with the confidence, the ability and the desire to make the world a better place. We have recently joined the Acorn Education Trust, as a way to build on and embed our success.
It has enabled us to share the best of what we do and learn from the good that other schools in the local area do.
