Headteacher’s Welcome

Our school is a very special place to learn and our children are STARS in the making! Our ambitious and dedicated staff work in close partnership with families to ensure learners:

  • are Safe and secure
  • foster their Talents, interests and identity
  • Achieve and learn to the very best of their ability
  • are Respectful and responsible
  • show great Sportsmanship skills

We have a strong ethos of equality and exploration. It is important to us that children are happy coming to school and enjoy purposeful learning. We support each other to learn with open-minds. We persevere, develop independence and push new boundaries to challenge ourselves creatively.

Every child is an individual; we commit to developing the whole child with high expectations of what can be achieved. We aim for children to leave us believing in themselves, equipped with the confidence and skills to achieve their dreams.

Please feel very welcome to contact us for any help or support we can offer.

Welcome to the Ranvilles Junior School Website

We will work in close partnership with children, their families and the school community to ensure learners achieve their best in an environment which promotes high academic achievement, moral education and success in the Arts. We will help children to discover and explore who they are and we will support them to establish and hold values which are both individually and collectively important. We will promote the Arts, academic achievement and Moral Education (ME) values through an internal programme of study called Ranvilles STARS. We will communicate our values through Ranvilles’ Junior School ‘Home/School Partnership Agreement’.
