Outwoods Edge is a larger than average, happy primary school situated on the outskirts of Loughborough in Leicestershire. We truly believe in our strapline – ‘Every Child, Every Day, Every Future’ – and we work hard to make sure that every day counts for every child. Our core values of Kindness, Honesty, Empathy, Respect and Responsibility permeate all that we do at school and are embedded in our ethos.

Our curriculum is designed to be engaging, challenging and fun and we expect the very best from all members of our school community – at Outwoods Edge, effort is everything! We have two classes in each year group and the teaching teams work together to plan, deliver and assess their work. This ensures consistency and equality of opportunity across both classes. In addition to the teaching staff we have a valued and dedicated group of non-teaching staff who support the children’s learning. The school building is well maintained and kept by our Site Manager and we benefit from a large field and lots of space for outdoor learning, complete with an all-weather track and well-developed outdoor play areas.

The staff team is stable, settled, caring and hardworking; many of the staff have been at the school for a long period of time. Parents play a key role in the life of the school and are involved in, and supportive of, their children’s education. We have a supportive Governing Body who play a key role in the school’s development.

The school became a single academy trust in 2012 and we are part of a collaborative group of nine schools in the local area. The Loughborough Primary Academy Partnership works together on joint activities such as curriculum development, monitoring, evaluation and quality assurance work. It is a dynamic group that seeks to improve the educational experience for children in Loughborough.
