Mawgan-In-Pydar Primary School

ur school prides itself on providing a happy, safe, secure and supportive learning environment. At Mawgan-in-Pydar every child is special and unique. All our children are encouraged to care for and support one another.

At the centre of our ethos is an unwavering belief that all children can succeed and should enjoy their school experience while achieving their full potential. Our aspiration is that every child can feel that they are part of a vibrant, caring community. A community in which they can feel confident enough to try new things without fear of failure and one in which everybody has something to offer and something to learn.


We aim to give every child the opportunity to excel not only academically, which we certainly do, but in every area of their life.
