Churchgate C of E Primary School

We are proud of our school and place a special emphasis on our relationship with parents, the local church of St Mary’s and the wider community. You are always welcome in the school both at our special events and at other times. Our aim is to develop an effective partnership with parents so that we can work together for the benefit of the children.

At Churchgate we recognise that children have individual needs, and these are considered in our teaching and learning goals. We encourage the pupils to be part of a caring community, through our Personal, Health and Social Education and our Christian ethos.

Our Monday assemblies are taken by Dave Welch, our vicar, and a team from the congregation at St Mary’s, our local church. We also have assembly every morning of the week, and seasonal end-of-term services for which all the classes walk down to the church. Visitors and family are cordially invited to these occasions. You will find that in our services, a key element is the lively choice of songs, and pupils will often ‘raise the roof’ with their enthusiastic singing.

We have an active Friends of Churchgate group who organise social events and fundraising to support the school and a very supportive Governing Body.

We want our children to be happy, successful, disciplined and self-motivated.
