We hope the time you and your child spend with us will be both happy and successful. The Grange Primary School is no ordinary place – it is a place that is focused on fostering lifelong skills and qualities. It is a wonderful school and the children are the very epitome of all that is good about it. We believe that education should be a partnership between pupils, parents, staff and governors and that children learn more effectively when they see parents and teachers working together in a cohesive environment.

We aim to provide a caring, friendly, purposeful and stimulating environment in which children are able to achieve high standards, gain a sense of independence and begin to realise their full potential.
