About Valentine Primary School & Nursery

Valentine Primary School and Nursery is a community where ambition and care sit side by side. We are committed to securing strong academic outcomes through high quality teaching, a clear curriculum and precise assessment, ensuring every child builds the knowledge and skills they need to succeed.


Alongside this, we place equal importance on developing the whole child. Our provision is deliberately designed to nurture independence, resilience and real world capability. Through gardening, cookery and forest school, children learn practical life skills, teamwork and a sense of responsibility for themselves and their environment.


We recognise that talent is not one dimensional. Children are given rich opportunities to discover and develop their strengths through specialist teaching in art, PE and music, ensuring breadth and depth beyond the core curriculum. Creativity, performance and physical development are not add-ons here, they are integral. We also prepare children for a rapidly changing world. Technology is embedded meaningfully across the school, including the use of virtual reality to deepen understanding and bring learning to life.


At the heart of our school is a deep love of reading. Our state of the art library is a hub of curiosity and imagination, where children build fluency, develop knowledge and foster a lifelong relationship with books. At Valentine, we develop confident learners, capable individuals and well rounded young people ready for their next step.
