Head's Welcome

Welcome to the Avening Primary School website.

 At Avening Primary School, children, staff and governors aim to treat everyone with respect. Resourceful, resilient and reflective, we will engage in our learning and aspire to be the very best that we can be. As a community of successful learners, we will collaborate to make our world a better place to live and learn. We look forward to our futures with hope.

Together we’ll fly.

I am very proud to be the headteacher of Avening Primary School, a happy learning environment with a dedicated team of staff and governors, where the well-being and progress of every child are central.

I passionately believe that school should be an exciting, engaging and safe place to learn, filled with positive relationships and a sense of optimism; every member of the school community should be encouraged to be the very best that they can be. I am committed to ensuring that this is reflected in effective, exciting and innovative teaching and learning practices throughout our school. Education at Avening Primary School is about fostering in children a lifelong love of learning, as well as helping them to develop into resilient, reflective and responsible individuals with high self-esteem.

At Avening Primary School, our academic year is filled with stimulating and inspiring learning opportunities, as well as celebrations of our achievements and successes. We aim to work in close partnership with parents and the local community to ensure that every child is a successful learner.

I hope that this website helps you to gain an insight into our aims, values and organisation.
