Welcome!

On behalf of the pupils, staff and governors of Ringmer Primary and Nursery School, may I warmly welcome you to our website. It is an honour to lead such a dedicated and hardworking team as well as working alongside such motivated and enthusiastic pupils.

Our school is part of a growing and thriving village community. We admit children in the 2-11 age range and some 330 children are currently on roll here. The school has been through a major rebuilding and refurbishment project in recent years and the result is a modern and comfortable environment which is conducive to first class learning experiences.

2019 sees the beginning of a new chapter for Ringmer Primary and Nursery School. There is one driver for all we do here and that is: The Children.

We believe that children learn best when they are happy, secure and feel that their achievements will be recognised. Our philosophy is epitomised by our motto, ‘Be the best that you can be!’ which reflects the key words in our vision statement: kindness, honesty, respect, commitment and achievement. These values underpin our work because we know they contribute strongly to positive attitudes to learning both in school and the world outside. Any visitor to our school will no doubt be impressed with the pupils’ positive attitudes and exemplary manners; thus seeing these values in action.

An integral part of our school is the resounding commitment to inclusion and raising standards for all pupils. The team work very hard to ensure the children achieve high standards especially in the key areas of English and Maths, however we also want our pupils to experience a broad and irresistible curriculum through our passion for learning and inspirational teaching. We aim to provide exciting and relevant learning experiences which stimulate as well as challenge pupils. I want to hear our pupils telling their families about the exciting learning they have experienced each and every day.

As a school we are extremely committed to establishing a strong working partnership with parents and carers as we know you are a vital part of your child’s educational progress. We have an open door policy so please feel free to discuss any aspect of your child’s development with us. It is our priority that every child feels safe and happy as we know that will support a lifelong love of learning, leading to individual success.

I do hope you enjoy the contents of this website and that it provides you with the information you require. Do not hesitate to contact the office for any further queries. Finally, if you see me on the gate – do come and say hello so I can tell you in person what a wonderful school this is.

We currently have a few places available in our Nursery. We also have availability for children to start in our Reception classes, Barn Owls and Snowy Owls, in September 2019. If you are interested in seeing what our school can offer, please contact the office to arrange a visit and I will gladly give you a tour of our marvellous school.
