Swallowdale Primary School and Community Centre

We are very proud of our whole school community and I feel very privileged to lead the school. . We are very lucky to have enthusiastic and supportive pupils, families, teachers, support staff and LAB members within our school. Swallowdale is part of the Bradgate Education Partnership Multi-Academy Trust.

Swallowdale Primary School is an ambitious and inclusive school who has high expectations for all our children to achieve. Our dedicated and skilled staff deliver learning opportunities specifically tailored to individual children’s needs ensuring that everybody is able to ‘fly high together’ at Swallowdale Primary School. Our curriculum is purposeful and progressive. We make links to our local area where possible and are continually working towards a diverse curriculum which represents our local and global community.

Be Ready, Be Respectful and Be Safe are the key values which underpin our school as we believe these are key to ensure that the school community thrive and prepares everyone for today and the future.

Swallowdale Primary School benefits from being part of the community. We have an ‘open door’ policy therefore our families, governors and community members are invited to and involved in many events during the school year.
