Our website will give you an insight into the work of our school. We hope that you will visit us to experience for yourself the happy, caring and inspiring atmosphere. You will always be most warmly welcomed. 

School Vision

Our vision is to raise the aspirations of all our pupils by providing a creative and responsive curriculum that encourages pupil’s thinking and reasoning.  We aim to nurture positive attitudes to challenge, develop skills and increase knowledge of all pupils so they become happy, confident independent lifelong learners.

The teachers continually strive to create opportunities which promote confidence and independence. As a school we all believe that each individual has their own skills and talents and we strive to develop and celebrate these whenever possible.

Brudenell Primary School prides itself on its inclusive learning community, where children from the North West SILC (specialist inclusion learning centre) learn with children from the mainstream school.

We also recognise the importance of working alongside parents and carers and realise that by working together we build a partnership to benefit the children. Parents are always welcome at our Friday celebration assemblies and we would love you to join us. As a school we work with many agencies and projects to develop parental support of learning.

Staff and Governors work hand in hand to ensure that the educational opportunities of all children are protected and enhanced so that every child reaches their full potential.

On the first training day of each school year all staff are involved in our annual visioning session, where together we discuss the successes of the previous year and plan the School development Plan for the forthcoming year.

Our key areas for development for 2024-2025 are;
