Penponds Primary School will work with all stakeholders to create a happy, safe and stimulating environment where children become ‘Leaders of their own Learning’, where their rights are realised and respected. By maintaining high expectations of the whole school community, our children will be equipped to become lifelong learners. We encourage curiosity about the world, strive to be creative in everything we do and build confidence in our children to enable them to grasp opportunities and tackle challenges with resilience and self-assurance.
