A very warm welcome to Churchwood Primary School.
It is a privilege to lead such a vibrant, caring and ambitious school community. As a proud member of the Pioneer Academy Trust, we are committed to providing the highest quality education and ensuring that every child is supported to achieve their very best.
At Churchwood Primary School, we believe that children thrive when they feel valued, respected and secure. We are dedicated to creating an inclusive environment where pupils feel safe and happy so they can learn, develop confidence and enjoy their educational journey. We celebrate the unique strengths of every child and work closely with families to ensure all pupils are able to flourish.
Our school is guided by our core values of Co-operation, Empathy, Ambition, Resilience and Independence. These values underpin everything we do, helping our children to become thoughtful, responsible and successful members of society. Through our curriculum, relationships and wider opportunities, we encourage pupils to demonstrate these values every day.
We are situated in the picturesque setting of Church Wood. We have a large playing field, our own Forest School, a Woodland Playground and two acres of beautiful woodland. We have up to 300 children who are organised into single-age classes, including our thriving Nursery.
"We provide education in a creative way that inspires and motivates children to learn."
"Churchwood is committed to working in partnership with our parents."

Our vision reflects our aspirations for every child:
At Churchwood Primary School, we foster a safe and inclusive environment where strong foundations are nurtured and every child is given rich, broad experiences to flourish and embrace future challenges. We unleash curiosity, inspire ambition, and cultivate lifelong learners through meaningful opportunities for growth. Together, we build a proud community rooted in belonging, where every minute matters. We develop confident, independent learners who believe they can!
We are proud of the opportunities we provide both inside and outside the classroom, enabling children to discover new interests, develop their talents and create lasting memories. We strive to inspire a love of learning that will stay with them throughout their lives.
Whether you are a current member of our school community or considering Churchwood Primary School for your child, I hope our website gives you a flavour of what makes our school such a special place. We look forward to welcoming you and sharing in your child's learning journey.
