Our Vision:

At Northleigh CE Primary School we have high expectations and aspirations for our pupils to flourish. Through our curriculum we will enable our pupils to become intrinsically Brave, Strong and Fearless for life.

In their Northleigh journey, pupils will engage in a wide range of experiences which will develop their curiosity; provide opportunities for challenge and risk and enable them to overcome adversity.

We will prepare our pupils for life and learning by embedding our Church values and sense of community spirit. Northleigh pupils will be independent thinkers with a strong understanding of self, able to demonstrate empathy, respect and tolerance for others.

Mission Statement:

At Northleigh we provide a broad and balanced academic curriculum developed with the needs of our community at its heart. Underpinned by 3 core aims, our curriculum is designed to engage and inspire our pupils enabling them to know and remember more.

We will:

Provide engaging and enriching opportunities.

Foster an enquiring mind with the ability to question, choose, evaluate and argue rationally.

Embrace our core Christian values so we evolve as positive citizens.

Church Values

As a result of the trusting relationships between all members of the school community and embedded Christian Values in every aspect of our practise, children at Northleigh grow into respectful, well behaved and compassionate young people who have an understanding and respect for diversity and difference together with a motivation to help others in their community and beyond.

Our Church school serves all the community. We include everyone – those of faith and those with a preference for none.
