Windrush Church of England Primary School is a new school which opened in September 2021. Our beautiful building and fantastic facilities make us a special place for children to learn and flourish.
We are committed to providing a broad, balanced, and rich curriculum that not only enables children to be successful academically, but also to enrich themselves personally, allowing them to make valuable and meaningful contributions to society. Our school has a strong culture of aspiration for all where children are inspired and challenged to be the best that they can be.
We aim to create an educational environment that allows children to develop the ability to question, reason and gain independence in their learning, nurturing their skills and talents and providing a wealth of experiences and opportunities beyond the classroom.
Our Christian ethos supports children's moral, social and spiritual development and challenges and inspires our children to develop their potential and a strong moral character through our Christian values so they will be respectful, courageous and compassionate and learn to look beyond themselves for the good of their community and the world beyond.
