Our Ethos
Wilmington Primary School is thriving one form entry school surrounded by lovely grounds. The school is popular and oversubscribed with a current roll of 210 children. Situated in the centre of the village, the school is in close proximity to the Wilmington Grammars and Wilmington Secondary Academy .
Our Approach
We aspire to provide an environment that is stimulating, challenging and a place where children feel it is safe to learn from their mistakes. Our approach to learning is child-centred, inclusive and is focused on the development of the whole child, both socially and academically. We are incredibly proud to offer an enriching learning experience for the children through a broad and balanced curriculum. Our learning culture is one of pride, self-motivation and resilience. From their start in Reception, we encourage the children to develop enquiring minds with the independence and determination to succeed at all they set their minds to.
Our Vision
Our vision is to provide a happy, caring and stimulating environment where children will be helped to achieve their maximum potential while learning to respect others so that all will make their best contribution to society.
Our Core Values
We want our children to be happy in their learning and to take pride in their achievements. We expect our children to make a positive contribution to our school community by being responsible, polite, compassionate and respectful.
Our core values, which we promote in school, are resilience, positivity, team work, compassion and self-belief.
