About Dean Gibson Catholic Primary School, Kendal

Welcome to our great school! And a great school it is, not because of the recognition it receives but because the children at the school achieve great things.

Our school has an extraordinary staff team who work seamlessly with massively committed parents.  The very high standards we achieve in all areas emerge very naturally from this effective partnership.  

At Dean Gibson, we celebrate the uniqueness of each child in our care.  As a staff we know your children have the right to have aspirations and to know they are precious in the eyes of God.  In partnership with you we model the Gospel values of care, compassion and diligence on which our enterprise is based.  In short, we encourage our children to have what Basil Hume called  “a zest for living life to the full”.

We are a school for Catholic and non-Catholic children, welcoming all faiths and denominations.  We believe that faith is “lived”  and not just taught, a belief reinforced by our parish Priest, Father Hugh, who spends a great deal of time with us in school.

Our curriculum is broad and balanced and is delivered by an experienced staff to a high level.  As well as gaining language, mathematical and scientific skills your child will build confidence, self-reliance and develop the ability to articulate feelings and ideas. 

Our School Mission Statement
Guided by the Holy Spirit, we listen, learn and care.
