Dear Parents, Carers and Friends,

I am delighted to welcome you to Caedmon Primary School website.

As Headteacher, I am incredibly proud of our school, our children and the dedicated staff who work tirelessly to ensure every child feels valued, supported and inspired to reach their full potential and achieve their dreams.

At Caedmon, we believe that every child deserves the very best start in life. We are committed to nurturing happy, ambitious learners within a caring and inclusive environment where relationships matter and every child is valued as an individual. Through our Thrive approach, we support children’s emotional wellbeing while fostering the self-belief and life skills they need to flourish. From our Forest School provision in EYFS, where children develop independence and a connection with the natural world, to the wide range of enriching experiences offered throughout school, we inspire curiosity, creativity and a lifelong love of learning.

We are also incredibly proud of our play provision and our achievement of the Silver OPAL (Outdoor Play and Learning) Award. This recognises our commitment to transforming playtimes and lunchtimes into rich, meaningful experiences that develop independence, teamwork, problem-solving skills, imagination and wellbeing. Our children benefit from exciting opportunities to explore, create and thrive through play every day.

At Caedmon, we are always striving to be the very best we can be, providing the highest quality experiences for our children, families and wider community. We are proud of all that we have achieved and excited for what the future holds.

I hope our website gives you a flavour of life at Caedmon Primary School. We would be delighted to welcome you and your family to visit us and see first-hand what makes our school such a special place to learn, grow and belong.

Mrs Rachel Bergamino

Headteacher
