Loanends Prospectus 23/24

Welcome to Loanends Thank you for considering Loanends Primary School as a suitable choice for your child throughout their primary years. We hope you will find this prospectus both interesting and informative and hope that it will give you an insight into life at Loanends. At Loanends we aim to provide a secure and happy environment, in which learning can flourish, but where children will be challenged and supported in all aspects of their development throughout their Primary school years. We pride ourselves in setting high standards in terms of presentation, behaviour and the work demanded from our pupils and we encourage each pupil to fulfil their potential. We also recognise the great importance of parents and school working in partnership. We actively encourage the involvement of parents through supporting teachers in the classroom, in after school activities and also by volunteering to assist with trips and outings. We have an active and creative PTAFA who support the work going on in the school. We work hard to provide a caring environment where your child feels valued, confident and happy. We welcome children not only from the local area but also children from the Service community and even further afield. We look forward to working in partnership with you and your child over the coming years. If you would like to visit the school, we would be happy to arrange this. Please contact us on the numbers listed on Page 2.

Richer countries must help poorer countries achieve this.” ARTICLE 29 : (goals of education) “Education must develop every child’s personality, talents and abilities to the full.
