It is my pleasure to give you a warm welcome to Prestbury Church of England Primary School. We have a fantastic staff team, supportive parents, strong community links, including with St. Peter’s Church, and above all, great children who are a joy to be with. I have been at Prestbury CE Primary School for over 17 years and it continues to be a joy and privilege to serve and be part of such a special school community.
We believe each child is unique, with different gifts, talents and personality and are passionate about being an inclusive school.
I am so pleased that as well as strong academic outcomes, with results significantly above national and in the highest 20% of all schools nationally, we focus on the whole child, with the school graded Outstanding for Personal Development in our most recent Ofsted report. Working in partnership with our families, Prestbury CE Primary school is a place where each child is able to flourish.
We consider our school to be a team which includes governors, staff, parents, children, the church, the local community and our friends in Maxonia Primer.
If you have not yet had the opportunity to visit, we hope that you will accept our invitation to come and see for yourself. I look forward to meeting you.
