Overview

Our Vision For Elizabeth Woodville

At Elizabeth Woodville Primary School we work together to provide a supportive and stimulating learning environment which enables every child to succeed. We nurture natural curiosity for learning by offering a range of creative learning opportunities, based on the needs of our children, with progress and partnership being key. Our passion lies in developing happy, motivated, independent, confident learners, who reach their full potential

About Us

The introduction of the National Primary Strategy has led us to examine not only what we teach, but also how we teach. During their years at Elizabeth Woodville, the children are given the opportunity to study a range of subjects, sometimes as topics which cut across subjects and involve various skills. This provides them with a broad base on which to build for success at the Secondary phase of their education. Class teaching and discussion allows for a greater exploration of ideas, while individual work ensures that particular pupils' strengths and weaknesses are addressed.

The highly committed staff at Elizabeth Woodville Primary School aim to create a stimulating and attractive learning environment, where children are encouraged to develop initiative, independence, self-confidence and a sense of responsibility.

Elizabeth Woodville staff also work hard to create a working environment in which all children are expected to do well, and one where achievement is celebrated at all levels.

Our school believes in the value of home-school partnerships, where children share their homework with interested adults and where the staff shares curriculum intentions with parents regularly.

Our school values the community and recognises the contribution it can bring to the education of the children in our care. We actively seek and encourage positive partnerships with all who can help us develop, as a centre of excellence and enjoyment.

Our success is society's gain, and to achieve such a laudable aim, the staff at Elizabeth Woodville work in partnership with parents and governors. As a result of people working together towards common aims, the school builds capacity as a community where individuals are respected and valued, and one in which children can reach their full potential.

Living and Working in Leicestershire

In the Heart of England - Residents of Leicestershire enjoy the best of everything
From refreshing and beautiful countryside and personable market towns to vibrant city living, Leicestershire offers a distinctive and high quality of life that will suit all lifestyles
 
Leicestershire is a beautiful county at the heart of England, within the developing National Forest.  It is a county where you can discover completely unspoilt villages and market towns, open countryside and panoramic views with rocky summits and secluded valleys.
 
Leicestershire has a wide variety of attractions including Bosworth Battlefield, where the course of English history changed dramatically, Snibston Discovery Park, which recalls our industrial past, and the National Space Centre.
 
Loughborough, in the north of the County is at the forefront of Information Technology and Loughborough University is also the national headquarters for many sports in the UK.  A number of Olympic teams will be training at Loughborough University in preparation for the 2012 Games in London, including, among others, the British Swimming Team, the British Triathlon Team, the elite British Athletes and the English Women’s Football Team.
 
The jet engine was invented in Lutterworth, in the south of the County, while Hinckley in the west was where the hosiery and footwear industries evolved.  Ashby-de-la-Zouch, in the north-west, and Market Harborough, in the south-east, are two very attractive, historical market towns.  Melton Mowbray, in the north-east, is a rural market town famous for the pork pie and for Stilton cheese.
 
Cosmopolitan and cultured, historic but futuristic, Leicester in the centre of the County is nothing if not varied, with its strong cultural diversity, excellent entertainment, night-life and restaurants.  The newly re-developed centre of the City offers a wide range of shopping opportunities, from the largest permanent outdoor market in Europe to the extensive Highcross shopping centre.
 
Leicestershire is well served by many transportation networks.  Four motorways (M1, M69, M42 and M6) run through the County, and there are regular trains to London, Nottingham, Birmingham and the North.  For international travel East Midlands Airport is located in the north of the County, and Birmingham Airport is also easily accessible
