A warm welcome to Park Lane Primary School and Nursery; a unique school that will remain in your hearts for many years to come.

Our philosophy is one of kindness, doing the ‘right thing,’ inclusivity and striving for greatness, across all that we do. It is underpinned by our Trust 3 pillars of Wide Horizons, Proud Traditions and High Achievement. Our exceptional curriculum leads to inspirational teaching and our co-curricular offer of life beyond the classroom.

As a proud member of the Griffin Schools Trust, we belong to a family of schools with a shared philosophy, whilst incorporating the distinctive character and special qualities of our community. Each school benefits from the knowledge and expertise of our sister schools, and this further enhances our children’s primary school experience.

Our pupils are lively, interesting, and full of boundless enthusiasm for the opportunities that await them. We provide them with an exceptionally challenging yet exciting education experience, which fosters their interests and talents, enabling them to flourish and strive for success. Through our offer of specialist teaching, for example Maths, Sports and Music, we encourage greatness across all areas of the curriculum.

An extensive list of free co-curricular clubs is part of our core offer, with over 30 clubs each week, fostering interests and talents is a priority for us. By the time our children reach their final days with us, they will have experienced a vast array of unique activities, identifying their own talents and strengths along the journey. Our children will be well placed to pursue such talents during their secondary school years to fulfil the very best of their potential.

As a team of educators, our work begins by nurturing the foundations that you have fostered at home. We strongly believe that we not only admit children, but their families too.   In our approach to working in partnership, your child will be encouraged to achieve greatness through a resilient, independent attitude. Through our embedded learning behaviours, we will instil a moral compass ensuring that the ‘right way’ is the only way for our children; kindness and empathy being key to this.

If you believe that this may be the right environment for your child to spend those important primary school years, I warmly encourage you to visit us. We welcome regular family tours so that you too, can experience the magic of Park Lane for yourselves.

We look forward to meeting with you soon.
