It is with great pride and excitement that I welcome you to Kenton Primary School.

As the new Headteacher, I have already been inspired by the warmth, enthusiasm and strong sense of community that makes Kenton such a special place to learn and grow.

Kenton Primary School is a nurturing and inclusive school with a thriving Nursery, welcoming children from Nursery through to Year 6. We are privileged to work alongside our children and families throughout these important years, supporting every stage of their development and helping them build the knowledge, confidence and skills they need as they progress through their primary education and beyond.

At the heart of our school is a commitment to providing the very best opportunities for every child. We strive to create an environment where children are inspired to learn, encouraged to be curious, and challenged to achieve their full potential. Through a rich and engaging curriculum, we aim to develop confident, resilient learners with high aspirations for themselves and their futures.

Our school is built upon four key aims…

• We believe in fostering a strong sense of community, with school life at its heart.
• We provide a vibrant and welcoming learning environment that supports and stimulates learning, creativity and curiosity.
• We take pride in our dedicated adults, who work together as an inspiring team, motivating and supporting one another to be the very best they can be.
• Above all, we champion our children, encouraging them to develop a lifelong love of learning and the confidence to embrace new opportunities.

Our school values of kindness, respect, honesty and responsibility were identified by our children, working alongside staff, and these continue to guide all that we do. These values help create a caring and inclusive culture where everyone is encouraged to flourish, celebrate success and contribute positively to our school community.

At Kenton, we have high expectations of behaviour and are proud of “The Kenton Way”. Through a relational approach, we recognise the importance of every interaction and every conversation. We believe that positive relationships are the foundation of a successful school experience and help children feel safe, respected and ready to learn.

As Headteacher, I am committed to building strong partnerships with our families, staff, governors and wider community. Together, we will continue to ensure that Kenton Primary School remains a place where children are inspired to achieve, supported to grow, and encouraged to become the very best versions of themselves.

As we begin this exciting new chapter, I am committed to ensuring that Kenton Primary School continues to thrive as a place where children flourish, families feel valued, and our whole community can be proud.

Warm regards,

Mrs Francesca Toms
Headteacher
