Launceston Primary is part of the Athena Learning Trust Launceston College Multi Academy Trust (Trust) alongside Atlantic Academy, Bideford College, Altarnun Primary, Egloskerry Primary and Launceston College.
Launceston Primary School opened its doors in September 2021. The two-form entry school started with Reception pupils only, and will gradually fill to Year 6 to reach a maximum capacity of 420 pupils.
Launceston Primary School aims for all of our children to delight in life experiences and achievement, becoming happy, successful and responsible young people.
The success of Launceston Primary School is built on strong relationships between the school and the wider community ensuring that pupils know, understand and respect the diversity within the school, the local area, our country and the world. Our pupils develop a respect for the environment and an understanding and tolerance of others that ensures that they become successful, responsible and happy world citizens.
We consider the “through school” education to be paramount to success. We have close links with local nurseries, to ensure that children have a smooth transition to ‘big school’ and start in Reception ‘school ready’. Through our established relationships with staff at Launceston College, we can ensure that there will no dip in learning from Reception to Year 11, and beyond. The school’s geographical proximity to Launceston College will ensure pupils have access to both specialist teaching and specialist facilities not accessible to most primary age pupils.
