Egloskerry Primary is part of the Athena Learning Trust alongside Altarnun Primary, Atlantic Academy, Bideford College, Launceston College and Launceston Primary School.

Egloskerry is a small school, in a rural location five miles from Launceston. The school’s aim is for all children to delight in life experiences and achievement, inside and outside the classroom. This is supported by the creativity, dedication and commitment of the excellent staff and Governing Body and the strong relationship that is nurtured between staff, children, and their families, as well as the wider local community.

Through a combination of outstanding personal development, a sense of adventure and our creative curriculum, children gain access to a unique world of opportunity and experience. Our children are a delight – polite, enthusiastic and excited about learning and discovery. They grow into well-rounded pupils with a passion for life, a love of learning and a breadth of interests enabling adaptation to the fast changing world around them. All skills are valued – academic, creative, sporting, social. Community, family and success for all lie at the heart of our ethos and vision.

Our staff team are nurturing and inspirational and we work together to ensure children feel safe. Our children are capable of achieving great things and we help them to believe this too. We do this by embedding high-quality and contextualised learning within meaningful, challenging and exciting topics which are led by the children e.g. Antarctica, Inventions, Space.
