Ludlow Primary School (for ages 2-11)

Our Vision:

At Ludlow Primary School, we aim to ensure that our children are educated as citizens of the world. Our curriculum equips them with the skills they need to be confident communicators, and their views are always valued. We put pride on the merits that they have and achievements that they attain through applying an encouraged growth mindset. Through encouraging these key areas, children leave us with the skills they need to flourish further in life. 

Our 4 Core Values are:

Kindness

We believe kindness is the foundation of a positive and supportive community, where every child learns to treat others with empathy, respect, and care.

Honesty

We teach that honesty builds trust and integrity, encouraging children to take responsibility for their actions and to speak the truth with courage and respect.

Independence

We nurture independence by encouraging children to think for themselves, make responsible choices, and develop the confidence to take initiative in their learning and daily lives.

Happiness

We value happiness as essential to learning, creating a joyful and caring environment where every child feels safe, supported, and excited to grow.
