Welcome
Shenton Primary School serves an International community. Our children speak over 20 different languages and we pride ourselves on helping every child develop as a happy, confident and aspiring learner.
‘Parents are a child’s first and most enduring educators.’
We believe that the best way a child can learn is through partnership between teachers, children and parents. We have high expectations for all our children and we aim to provide a high quality learning environment in which children can flourish.
Above all we believe that the broad, balanced curriculum we provide will enable children to enjoy school and learn well. We adhere to all national and city council legislation. You can find more information here.
Our school results are strong, and we have consistently achieved at or above National averages in Year 6 for a number of years. We have also been placed in the top 10 of schools in the city, a number of times in terms of the standards the children achieve.
We will always make ourselves available to discuss any aspect of your child’s development. You can talk to teachers at the beginning or end of the school day, or make an appointment if you would like to discuss your child’s progress in more detail at any time. We also have regular meetings arranged through out the school year to keep you informed.
'Respect and fairness shine through all aspects of life at Shenton Primary . Pupils treat each other with kindness They thrive in the calm and purposeful atmosphere . Teachers expect the best from all pupils and want them to do well Pupils work hard and help each other in lessons.'
