Welcome to Brixham Church of England Primary School. Our Vision Life in all its fullness (John 10:10) is at the heart of what we do. We continually strive to develop and nurture children in our care so that they can make the most of all the opportunities in life and reach their fullest potential.
We understand that to live life in all its fullness, we need to cultivate all children's gifts, skills and abilities and when we work together, we can achieve great things. At Brixham we believe that developing children's character is key to learning and becoming a respected and valued citizen.
Our inspiring curriculum ensures that all learning happens with the development of character in mind. Citizenship, Leadership, Expression, Explorers and Flourishing are the gateways to our learning and underpins our school values.
All children learn through a range of meaningful experiences, giving them a highly enriching and engaging experience of school and the desire to make a positive contribution to the school, local and global community.
