Welcome to Barton Primary School!

It is my pleasure to welcome you to our new school website.
Our primary school years lay the foundation for a life time of learning. We recognise the importance of knowing every child and work hard to foster the vital partnership between home and school.

We aim for every child to have a happy and active primary education in an environment that is caring and supporting. We aim to provide a stimulating and structured environment in which every child will be encouraged to reach their full potential.

We treat all pupils individually, developing their sense of worth and confidence and encourage unique talents to flourish in every child.

This website is designed to give you a glimpse of the range of opportunities available at the school as well as an insight into the things we consider important in the education of our children. It is packed with information that parents/guardians need to know. If you are a prospective parent looking for an admission place for your child, I would be delighted if you would come along to meet us in person and look around the school.

Yours sincerely,

Mrs J. M. Young
Head teacher
