Headteacher’s Welcome to Shelley Primary School

On behalf of everyone at Shelley, I would like to extend a very warm welcome to you all. We hope that the information on our website helps you to understand the aims and working practices of our school community. If you are selecting a school for your child, we recognise it is one of the most important decisions you will make and our staff are always available and happy to help should you wish to visit or ask any questions.

At Shelley, we aim high, care deeply and learn together. We believe that every child can succeed, and it is our privilege and responsibility to help your child reach their full potential.

We offer a safe, caring and inclusive environment where children can thrive, both within and beyond the classroom. We want every child at Shelley to develop a love of learning, a sense of pride in their achievements and the confidence to try new things.

Our values of Aspiration, Respect, and Togetherness guide everything we do; they are the foundation for our thoughts, decisions and actions. They underpin our learning behaviours of resilience, independence, curiosity, focus and co-operation, which help our pupils become confident, compassionate and motivated learners as well as responsible citizens who will make a positive contribution to society.

We are also fully committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of all children and young people, ensuring that every child feels happy, safe and valued. We want ALL members of our school community: children, parents and carers, staff and governors to feel the ‘Shelley Sense of Belonging’.

Mrs Kim Sheik
