A warm Welcome to Mabe Community Primary School for Mabe School, which I hope gives you an overview of the happy, safe and respectful environment which we, as a school community, continue to develop following the school expansion in 2018.
We hope that children will join us from the age of 3, when they can enjoy a state of the art eco-classroom equipped with fantastic resources both inside and out. At Mabe School we are committed to our school values which are to Motivate, Assist, Believe and Excite.
These values guide us to provide, not only a broad range of stimulating experiences for our children, but also a curriculum which encourages, challenges and inspires our children so that they thrive on the provision in each, and every, year group up to Year 6 and leave as confident, well-rounded young people, equipped for the next stage of their educational journey.
