Welcome

Welcome to Easingwold Primary School.

'Excellence for All.'

Welcome to Easingwold Primary School. We are a rapidly growing and popular school at the heart of our community. Despite being the largest primary school in the local vicinity, we are very much one big happy family. Our children love coming to school and are eager to learn and develop.

Our school is a happy, caring and inclusive place where we all work collaboratively towards our mission statement of - Excellence for All. We strive to ensure that all children receive an excellent education regardless of their starting points and welcome and accept everybody.

Governors, Leaders and Staff are committed to providing the very best education for our community and preparing children for the next step of their education and beyond. To do this, we provide ‘indelible’ experiences for our children which spark their curiosity and develop a lifelong love of learning. Our carefully planned curriculum ensures that they build up their skills and knowledge over time, learning and remembering more as they move through the school.

All work we do in school is guided by our three core values of - Respect, Responsibility and Resilience. We believe that teaching, modelling and upholding these values will help our children to become the very best that they can be. 

We are committed to an excellent start for all children right from day one and place a big emphasis on early reading and phonics. We believe that being able to read and developing a love of reading gives children the very best chance of success in life. 

We are passionate about teaching children to be independent and resilient as we see these as vital keys to success. We teach children a range of self-scaffolding techniques which help them to think for themselves and develop the ability to keep on trying and never give up.

Our school prides itself on our excellent behaviour and we are proud of how polite and courteous our children are. We receive many compliments about our manners, attitudes and behaviour wherever we go.

Educational visits and residential trips are a big part of ECPS life and we are passionate about providing these as well as a variety of extracurricular clubs to support our work on independence, resilience and collaboration. We place developing the whole child at the centre of our curriculum.

As children take part in school life and grow and develop, their safety is of the utmost importance to us. We have rigorous safeguarding policies and procedures in place and teach children how to keep themselves safe both in and out of school as well as online. 

I hope that this has given you a flavour of what we are about and what we can offer your child. The best way to see us in action is to arrange a visit. Please contact the school office on 01347 821282 or admin@easingwoldprimary.co.uk book an appointment.

I look forward to meeting you and showing you around our wonderful school.
