A Message from the Headteacher
We are an inclusive learning community for staff, children and their families , from birth up to 7 years old. We have excellent facilities and resources to support the good academic, personal, social & emotional progress and development that is made by our children.
A high priority is placed upon maintaining this inclusive culture for teaching & learning that supports the needs of all individuals through effective conditions for learning. Developing independence through personalised learning is a priority and expectations remain high. We are committed to raising standards of attainment and progress for all, across all areas of school life.
We look forward to seeing you in school on many occasions. This website is just a taste of our community, please come in to feel and see how special we are.
Yours sincerely
Mrs C. Ray

Mission Statement
We are an infant school with Designated Children Centre status, providing education and care to the community of Ryhope. We prepare our learning community to develop confidently and successfully.
We are a caring organisation and by example encourage the children to show concern for others and to become aware of their influence on the environment and the need to care for and celebrate the rich and diverse cultural heritage and ethnic diversity within the school and the wider community.
We believe that the provision of a secure, caring, and stimulating learning environment will enable the children, regardless of race and gender, to acquire positive attitude, the skills, knowledge and understanding necessary to become confident, independent learners.
Within a creative curriculum each individual will learn to be reflective, build relationships, show resilience and be resourceful within a nurturing environment which supports risk taking.
We are committed to creating a feeling of partnership within the school community, involving parents, staff, children, governors and all other stakeholders, by responding to change an innovation in a positive, flexible and inclusive manner.
We provide a safe, happy, responsible, well organised community where all members can learn and be valued as individuals.
