Heyes Lane Primary School

It gives me great pleasure to introduce myself as the new Headteacher of Heyes Lane Primary School. I feel extremely honoured and privileged to have been chosen to continue to develop this fantastic school into the next stage of its journey. Having worked in education for over 21 years and having been Deputy Head at Heyes Lane for over 14 years, I have seen first-hand and know what a wonderful school we truly are. With confident, polite, articulate children and enthusiastic, dynamic, engaging teachers, we live by our school ethos of ‘an exceptional school for everyone’.

Our 5 Core Values and 5 Beliefs are at the heart of everything we do and I strongly believe in providing our children with exciting, creative and meaningful learning experiences, which build their enthusiasm for learning and help them to grow and develop positively in a variety of ways. Our team of talented and committed staff ensure that learning is engaging and inspiring and because of this, our pupils make excellent progress and reach high standards. The atmosphere and culture within our school nurtures and supports all our pupils to grow into the best they can be, to feel confident in who they are and to have a love and respect for others and our world. We believe we provide our pupils with a happy, successful and memorable primary school experience.  

Our core outcomes for pupils when they leave Heyes Lane Primary School are that they:

- have the confidence and belief to achieve anything in their future life.

- are empowered, confident and successful learners- excited by the world and a love of learning.

- have had opportunities and experiences that have nurtured and enriched their childhood through their journey through a bespoke, inspiring and engaging hands on curriculum.

- are highly knowledgeable, skilled and fluent in reading, writing, maths and computing skills and can apply, reason and create confidently with these.

- are highly ethical and active young citizens with a respect and love for people and our planet.

A very warm welcome to our website and to Heyes Lane Primary School.
