Message from Headteacher
Larkrise is a special place for both its children, staff and the wider community. We are a vibrant and caring school, within the city of Oxford, which proudly reflects the diversity of our community. Our new Headteacher joined the school in January 2020 and in the first term, we have worked to develop our new Mission, Vision and Values. These will be used to shape our journey in seeking excellence in all that we do. Our main focus of improvement will be to provide a world-class curriculum with high expectations of every child and within which wellbeing is nurtured and learning is limitless. A curriculum that inspires through creativity, kindness and adventure.
It is an exciting time for Larkrise Primary School. In February 2019 we joined the River Learning Trust (RLT). The RLT is a Multi-Academy Trust responsible for a number of schools and a school-centred initial teacher training provider (SCITT) within Oxfordshire; the schools and SCITT are united by their commitment to the principles of the Trust and a common belief in the benefits of everything that is gained by working together. Information about the growing River Learning Trust by visiting www.riverlearningtrust.org .
Being part of RLT gives the school opportunities to work more closely with a diverse range of schools which will benefit both our staff and children. The Trust schools are also involved in working with Oxfordshire Teaching School Alliance (OTSA) which provides further access to support and development opportunities. Larkrise is a strategic partner school within OTSA (Click here for more information).
The school serves one of the most diverse and international cities in the UK. Our children come from a wide range of economic and cultural backgrounds. They speak a number of different languages, at the last count we had twenty different languages spoken at the school. We believe that this diverse and vibrant catchment of East Oxford should be celebrated and be reflected in our curriculum.
