Introducing Our School

Partney is a co-educational Church of England Aided Primary School and educates children between the ages of approximately four and a half to eleven years old. The School which is housed in pleasant modern buildings and has its own playing fields, is situated in a quiet lane overlooking open countryside. The accommodation comprises of a hall, three main classrooms, and a smaller room especially for group teaching together with a new administration block. During the academic year 1992/93 the two classrooms in the main building were enlarged.

As an aided School we have very close links with our Parish Church and local clergy visit regularly.

The School's Mission Statement

We welcome all children from the local community whatever their parent's beliefs whilst providing a grounding in the Anglican faith for all our children. We are concerned to nurture attitudes of mutual respect and responsibility, to foster an awareness of the beliefs and faiths of others and to ensure that the children in our care develop their full spiritual, emotional and academic potential.

Partney School is distinguished by the support of its staff for its Christian foundation and by the active involvement of its Parents, Governors and Local Clergy. We aim to maintain strong links between the School, Home, Church and the Local Community.

We encourage children to share our appreciation of our environment - to care for our School and its grounds, to delight in the ever changing Countryside which surrounds us and to play our part in taking care of the World.

The Aims of the School

In educating the children entrusted to our care we have three main aims :-

1. To encourage and develop the abilities, skills and interests of each individual child, spiritually, academically, socially, physically and aesthetically.
2. To so motivate each child that he will want to learn, to equip him with the basic skills and develop the correct aptitudes so that he may continue to learn throughout his life.
3. To help each individual child to take his place in the Christian community, to live in harmony with others and to be aware of his responsibilities as well as his rights. We regard every child as an individual who is to be encouraged to obtain his or her personal best. We hope that our pupils will grow into happy well balanced adults who are able to face with equanimity the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead.
