At Glenfield Primary School, we have enthusiastic children, dedicated staff, a caring environment and a wonderful building. We work in partnership with parents, trustees, governors and the community to provide a well-planned, broad and ambitious curriculum, adapted to the wide-ranging needs of our pupils. We have high expectations of all our pupils and are dedicated to ensuring that all are supported to achieve the best possible standards.

As our mission statement states,

“Learn together, achieve together, be the best that we can be.”

The school also has a specialist Speech and Language Provision which takes children from across Leicestershire who have speech, language and communication needs.

We are proud to be a caring school where the well-being and development of every individual is of paramount importance. Throughout different areas of the curriculum, children are given the opportunity to develop academically, socially, emotionally and creatively, so that they are able to thrive as they mature and grow. Overall, children feel safe and secure. We have a strong focus on values and building children’s character skills and we aim to embed these into all aspects of teaching and learning.

Visitors often comment on the children's pride in their school and their learning and on the calm, industrious atmosphere around the school.

Visits to the school are welcomed as they are one of the best ways for you to see all that the school has to offer. These can be arranged through the school office.

We believe that by working together with parents, carers and the community, we can provide an education rich in first-hand experience. Our curriculum is supported by school visits and visiting speakers from local businesses and charities.

We also have established links with St Peter's Church, the Parish Council and other local faith groups.

Frequent communication between home and school is encouraged. Parents are invited in for special assemblies and performances, curriculum workshops and other events. Please look out for details of these on our newsletters and website calendar.

Newsletters are sent out fortnightly and we also use a text messaging service to keep parents informed.

Centred on meaningful partnership, our schools focus on collaboration and internal support whilst always remaining outward facing. We all share a common purpose and vision – the key is to ensure our schools retain their uniqueness and ethos that enables them to meet the needs of their communities. We are all in this together and have a collective responsibility to maintain a distinct culture that supports the development of the children across our schools. By the end of their primary education we aim for all our children to be ready for secondary school and be inspired to be the best they can be.
