Our School Vision Statement

‘Love of Learning for Life’

At Stanhope Primary and Nursery School, our vision is to cultivate a culture of excellence where every child is inspired to flourish - academically, socially, and emotionally. We are committed to nurturing curious, confident learners who are empowered to embrace challenges, grow in resilience, and achieve their full potential.

Guided by our motto, "Love of Learning for Life," we create a joyful, inclusive environment that fosters lifelong learning and equips every child with the knowledge, values, and character to thrive in an ever-changing world.

Together, with our families and community, we strive to ensure that all children feel seen, supported, and celebrated – today and into the future.

  Be Safe

• We look after ourselves, others, and our environment.
• We make thoughtful choices that help everyone feel secure, heard, and cared for.
• We create a calm, consistent space where children are free to take risks in their learning and grow in confidence.

  Be Your Best Self

• We try our hardest and take pride in everything we do.
• We set high expectations for ourselves and support others to do the same.
• We embrace challenges, learn from mistakes, and strive to be the best version of ourselves - academically, socially, and emotionally.
