Welcome to Cranborne CE VA First School

On behalf of the children, staff, and governors, I welcome you to Cranborne Church of England First School.

We are enormously proud of our school, and its place within the community. Our school is  happy, vibrant and successful, with children at the heart of all that we do. Our children are valued and nurtured as individuals; we believe that everyone is special and we strive to build relationships within the school that are conducted with care and concern for one another. Our staff provide a calm, nurturing and stimulating environment where our Christian values of Compassion, Friendship, Trust, Justice and Forgiveness are evident in all that we do.

We are committed to providing an excellent education helping children to achieve by developing enquiring minds; instilling the motivation to learn, and the ability to work both independently and collaboratively, while being confident in taking risks with their own learning.

Through nurturing our children, both academically and spiritually, we aim to provide them with secure foundations for life, so that they leave us with an excellent all round education and a love of learning.

Visits are encouraged and welcomed: I would be delighted to show you around our wonderful school.

Mrs A. Faithfull
Headteacher
