About Southgate Primary School

katie (3 of 3).jpg

Southgate Primary School is an improving school situated in the heart of the Crawley Community. At Southgate, we carefully consider what children will need to know in order to be successful in an ever-changing future. This includes what knowledge and skills they will need. Whilst we have high academic aspirations for all our children, it is equally important that they grow, learn and flourish into well-rounded individuals, with an intellectual curiosity to become good learners.  We aim for our children to know how to persevere when they are challenged, how to strive for success but equally for children that know how to win with dignity and loose with grace.  We want our children to see every mistake as a first attempt in their learning and we place great importance on respect, tolerance and teamwork. 
 
We have an approachable, talented and caring staff team who understand the importance of relationships and innovatively create opportunities for every child to shine and discover what they are good at.  Through inspirational teaching and a broad, balanced and creative curriculum, our children receive memorable experiences both in and out of the classroom.


We welcome visits to the school - please do not hesitate to contact us on 01293 525 966.
