we care for ourselves, other people, and our environment
We don't inherit the world from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children.

welcome
A very warm welcome to Kingsmead Primary School. A place where we have been 'caring for ourselves, other people and the environment' since 2004.
This is my first year as Headteacher but I have been part of the school's journey since it was built in 2004. I feel very privileged and proud to be part of such a wonderful school and am looking forward to working with all of the children, staff and families to continue to grow the school from strength to strength. As a school we aim to work together in partnership with parents, carers and the local community, to provide our children with the best possible life chances, and to be rightly proud of themselves and their efforts as special, unique individuals.
If you have any general questions which are not answered on our website, please do not hesitate to contact us; we will happily answer any queries you may have and would be delighted to offer you a tour of our school.

Thinking on Tuesday
A whole school assembly, sharing the thinking for the coming week.
Be it a poem or exploration of language, we think about the week's theme through a language lens.
Thursday Thoughts
Assemblies for younger and older children, reflecting on the week's thinking.
- EYFS story in the hall
- Key Stage 1
- Key Stage 2
A story that may reflect on the week's thinking, look forward to the following week. or sometimes be just a wonderful story for pleasure. Suitable for listening to in school or as a Friday story at home.
The real voyage of discovery lies not in seeing new landscapes but in having new eyes.
