Headteacher: Mrs Mel Shute

A modern school with excellent facilities serving a new community and creating a wealth of exciting and inspiring opportunities

At Trumpington Park Primary School all our staff work together to provide a friendly, caring and safe community enabling children to flourish in their learning as well as supporting their physical, social and health development and education. We believe that all children have the right to an outstanding educational experience and, focusing on this ideal, we aim high and work together to ensure children make significant personal achievements in their own unique ways.

We want children and their families to be excited about school and the different opportunities it can offer. We are passionate about working together and recognise that building positive and lasting relationships with parents, carers and the wider community will enhance learning and extend it beyond the school gates.

Our goal is to provide a nurturing environment which enables children to understand a sense of community, citizenship and belonging and to create individuals who are inspired to make a difference. We strive to ensure our children can articulate their views and ideas confidently, to enable them to actively be heard as well as respecting and valuing the views and opinions of others.

Building strong partnerships between home and school effectively encourages children to become independent, engaged learners. We look forward to building a positive and rewarding partnership between home and school. Celebrating the success of a child is something we should all share in and feel equally proud of.
