At Ellesmere Primary School
we inspire young people
to be ambitious, independent
learners, who are passionate
about the world around them.
Based in the Shropshire town of
Ellesmere, close to the Welsh border,
we have a strong sense of community
and work closely with our partners
to enable children to ‘be the change
they want to see in the world’. Key to
achieving this is ensuring we deliver
creative, stimulating learning, which
engages children of all backgrounds
and abilities, and inspires a thirst for
knowledge.
One of our top priorities is the welfare
of every individual within our school.
We teach our children ways to
promote and support their own and
others’ wellbeing. We encourage
everyone to celebrate difference and
challenge inequalities. We believe
that ensuring our pupils feel happy,
respected and valued, provides the
foundations for successful learning.
As a school, we operate within a
specific set of ‘Ellesmere Values’;
Respect, Responsibility, Kindness,
Teamwork, Creativity and Community.
Since joining North West Academies
Trust in 2016, our learning
environment has greatly improved,
following a £3.5m investment in
facilities improvements. This includes
improvements to the layout of the
school, better energy efficiency and
new purpose-built classrooms
