Welcome to Crossways Infant & Junior Schools, a vibrant and nurturing community in the beautiful, north Bristol satellite town of Thornbury. At Crossways, we create a safe, inclusive, and supportive environment where everyone feels valued and respected as a unique individual. Our school vision guides everything we do, ensuring that every member of our community is empowered to thrive both academically, professionally and personally.

At Crossways, we understand that academic success is deeply connected to emotional and social well-being. That’s why we place a strong emphasis on nurturing positive relationships, resilience, and confidence. We encourage children to be kind, respectful, and responsible members of our school community and beyond. Our values of contribute, aspire, respect and equality are embedded in daily life, helping children to develop empathy and an understanding of the diverse world around them.

We believe that education is a partnership between home, school, and the wider community. We warmly welcome families to be actively involved in their child’s education and school life. Together, we create a supportive network that celebrates achievements, supports challenges, and shares aspirations. Our staff are approachable, passionate, and committed to continuous professional development, ensuring that we remain at the forefront of best practises in teaching and leadership.

Crossways is more than just a school; it is a place where children grow as confident learners and caring individuals. We strive to provide every child with the skills, knowledge, and attitudes they need to succeed in an ever-changing world. Our staff are passionate educators who bring the best out in our children. They benefit from high-quality professional development, including leadership pathways in a supportive, joyful environment.
