Welcome to Heygarth Primary School

We are a happy, friendly school and welcome visitors, so if you would like to look around, please feel free to pop in or make an appointment through our school office.

As we feel that all members of our school community should work together as learners, helping each other to achieve and grow, living in harmony with those around us.

As a Rights Respecting School, we place great emphasis on personal and social development and aim to nurture our children on their journey, so they can grow into safe, caring, democratic, responsible and understanding adults who make a positive contribution to our society and beyond.

As an inclusive school, we champion being unique and respecting differences. Every child is supported to meet their individual potential and is nurtured through the school's trauma-informed approaches and high aspirations for all.

  • At Heygarth Primary School we believe that Every Child Matters and we aim to:

    • Provide a broad, rich and creative curriculum that will challenge and support pupils to enable them to reach their full potential.

    • Develop children’s respect for themselves and for others and a sense of pride in their community so that they can become good citizens.

    • Provide a safe and secure learning community where the whole child can develop (academically, socially, emotionally, physically, culturally and creatively) and where all achievement is celebrated.

    • Make learning relevant and fun in order to foster a lifelong love of learning.

    • Be a fully inclusive school where all members of the community have equal opportunities - children, parents, volunteers, staff and governors and where positive contributions are valued.

    • Promote an understanding of the need to take responsibility for any actions and to consider the related consequences.
