Head's Welcome

Welcome to Broadbottom Church of England Primary School

“Let your light shine.” — Matthew 5:16

Dear Parents and Carers,

It is my great pleasure to welcome you to Broadbottom Church of England Primary School.

As Acting Headteacher, and having taught at Broadbottom for 22 years, I feel incredibly proud to be part of our wonderful school community. Broadbottom is a small, friendly and caring village school where every child is known, valued and encouraged to shine.

We are proud of our strong relationships with families, our local community and St Michael and All Angels Parish, as part of the Diocese of Chester. As a Church of England school, our Christian vision and values are at the heart of everything we do.

Our vision, “Let your light shine,” is inspired by Matthew 5:16. We encourage our children to recognise their individual gifts and talents, develop their aspirations and make a positive difference to the lives of others. Through kindness, respect, compassion and good deeds, we help our pupils understand the importance of being positive role models within their school, community and the wider world.

We want every child at Broadbottom to flourish. Our pupils are encouraged to be curious, resilient and confident learners who take pride in themselves and their achievements. We support them to develop not only academically, but also socially, emotionally and spiritually, preparing them to become caring and responsible citizens.

Being a small school means that our staff know our children and families personally. We understand their individual interests, strengths and needs, allowing us to provide the care, encouragement and support that every child deserves.

Our school is a happy, lively and inclusive community. Our pupils are hardworking, well behaved and enthusiastic about learning, and we are proud of the opportunities we provide for them both within school and beyond.

We also benefit from wonderful outdoor spaces, extensive playground facilities and our unique community outdoor art gallery. These provide opportunities for children to play, be active, reflect, read, create and enjoy the natural environment.

As a Church of England school, we welcome families from all backgrounds and respect diversity, freedom of religion and belief. Every child is valued, respected and warmly welcomed at Broadbottom.

We would love to welcome you and your family to our school so that you can experience our special community for yourself, meet our wonderful pupils and see our school in action.

If you would like to arrange a visit, please contact us on 01457 762382. We look forward to meeting you.

Warmest wishes,

Miss L Hawkins
Acting Headteacher
