At Redlands Community Primary School we strive to provide an inspiring and enthusiastic learning environment. We recognise that education is a life-long journey and ensure that we support children and teachers at all times to enjoy learning together.

It is the aim of the staff and Advisory Board at Redlands to ensure that all our children are happy and enjoy their time at school. We like to promote an environment in which every child has the potential to do their very best and be recognised for all their achievements. We have close links with our community and believe in working together to inspire the children to be proud of the place in which they live. Our parents are fantastic and work hard to support the school and we are a school that is very much at the centre of the village of Sileby.

At Redlands we believe in putting the children at the heart of everything that we do and this includes providing the children with a creative curriculum that is both exciting and inspiring. Our children have their learning brought to life by carefully planned opportunities that enthuse, engage and motivate our children to want to find out more.

Our Vision:

• To provide an environment that is safe and friendly and encourages learning.
• Provide a broad and balanced learning experience that is accessible, motivating and exciting.
• Value the experiences that parents provide for their children and broaden this with a range of activities beyond the classroom.
• Promote life long learning using a range of teaching styles which cater for individual learning needs.
• Interact with the local community.
• Strive for excellence, seeking to maximise and celebrate the success of all our pupils.
• Value supportive team work.
