Preparing Children for a Successful Future
Dear Parents/Carers
Welcome to Clifton with Rawcliffe Primary School. We hope that this brochure gives you an
insight into this wonderful school. We are proud of the achievements of the school and the strong
relationships that are the foundation of the school‟s successes. We look forward to meeting you
and welcoming your child in to the school.
This school was designed, built and opened in September 2011. It is a unique place where learning
and teaching ensures each child makes the best progress possible and fulfils their potential, in a
stimulating and creative environment with exceptional facilities.
Each child is special and valued, and we are proud of the warm and positive relationships we have
with families and the local community. We welcome visits to the school and ask simply that you
contact us to make an appointment if you wish to meet with a member of the senior leadership
team. Gill Johnson, our Business Manager and Parent Liaison Manager, is the person to contact to
arrange this. Gill will ensure your needs are met as best she can.
Our ultimate aim is to ensure every child develops the skills and positive attitudes to learning that
will stay with them on their journey through school and beyond. We want to instil a love of
learning and a willingness to be challenged and to see it through. We aim to develop resilience and
wellbeing that will equip each child through life. We want to ensure every child is ready for
secondary school.
This is an open school, designed to foster creative teaching and learning inside and outside the
school building. We believe this will encourage independence and self-confidence.
This booklet provides you with some general information about the school and we hope that you
find this useful. There is a brief overview of the curriculum and some key policies parents and
carers need to know on the school website.
Please contact the school if you need any further information.
Best wishes
Andy Herbert
Headteacher
