What is it like to attend St Luke’s School?

At St Luke’s, we foster a warm, supportive, and welcoming environment where pupils thrive. From the moment they arrive, students are eager to begin their day, feeling a deep sense of pride in being part of our school community. We have worked hard to create a culture of inclusivity, ensuring every child feels valued and supported, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND).
Exceptional Learning and Achievement
Pupils excel across the curriculum due to the school’s focus on removing barriers to learning. This is evident from the early years, where children not only perform exceptionally well academically but also grow socially and emotionally. By the time they reach Year 1, they are well-prepared and ready to continue their learning journey.
Safe and Supportive Atmosphere
Pupils at St Luke’s feel safe and secure. They demonstrate excellent behaviour, with a strong sense of respect for one another. At breaktimes, they enjoy playing together and are quick to support each other when needed. This caring community is one of the key factors that make St Luke’s such a special place to learn.
A Wide Range of Opportunities
We offer an exemplary range of experiences designed to enrich pupils’ personal development. From future skills and career workshops to arts, outdoor learning, and cultural activities, pupils are prepared not only for primary school but for life beyond it. We encourage children to develop their talents and interests through well-attended clubs, such as sports, choir, and mindfulness.
Commitment to High-Quality Teaching
Our dedicated staff are experts in their fields and work collaboratively to ensure the delivery of an ambitious, broad curriculum. Teachers are highly trained, and they continuously refine their practices to ensure every pupil receives the best possible education. Early reading is a key focus, with our phonics programme beginning as soon as pupils enter Reception. This enables students to become fluent readers as they progress through the school, developing a passion for reading that lasts a lifetime.
A Focus on Wellbeing
In addition to academic excellence, we prioritize the well-being of our pupils. Our school offers guidance on how to stay safe online, maintain physical and mental health, and develop the skills needed to thrive in the community. Pupils are encouraged to be resilient, problem-solving, and empathetic individuals.
Strong Relationships with Parents and Governors
St Luke’s benefits from strong partnerships with both parents and governors, who play an active role in the school community. Our governors are dedicated to ensuring the highest standards of education, working closely with staff to support and challenge the school. Parents, too, express high satisfaction with the care and support their children receive.
Outstanding Safeguarding
The safety of our pupils is of utmost importance, and we are proud to say that our safeguarding practices are robust and effective. We work closely with families to ensure all pupils feel safe, supported, and ready to succeed.

Vision

St. Luke’s CE Primary school provides a journey to discover ‘life in all its fullness’. John 10:10. Where children flourish, are happy and succeed. Our distinct Christian values: friendship, love, trust, patience, forgiveness and respect are woven throughout the day, the learning, the gathering, the school.

At St. Luke’s the children are at the heart of every decision we make to ensure that they are happy, confident and that the opportunities that are provided for them are relevant to their needs both now and in the future. We achieve this by providing an inspirational and creative curriculum, rich in opportunity and full of challenge.

 

The school has a dedicated team that works hard to reach high standards in everything we do and this is further embedded through our successful relationships with parents and the local community.

 

We firmly believe that education is a partnership between home and school and regard you as an active partner in your child’s education and value your interest and support. 

 

We pride ourselves on our happy, friendly and caring atmosphere, as well as our strong Christian ethos, which underpins all that we do. We have excellent links with St. Luke’s Church and we endeavour to help all our children develop their understanding of the Christian faith. 

 

We look forward to welcoming you!

Thank you

Mrs Kim Farrall

Headteacher
