Welcome

As the Head Teacher and on behalf of our governors, our staff and most importantly, our children, I am very proud to welcome you to Coxhoe Primary School and share our Vision Statement including our values, ethos and curriculum intent. 

 

Believe & Achieve is our school motto.

 We aim to offer our children engaging and enriching opportunities to allow them to develop the knowledge, skills and resilience they need to achieve in our ever changing and culturally diverse world.

 We are a growing school family with a shared drive and determination to ensure all of our children reach their full potential across all aspects of our broad, balanced and bespoke Coxhoe curriculum. Staff and governors believe that it is a privilege to guide your children through their Primary School journey and are passionate about their important role.

 

Our school community is based upon positive relationships that are underpinned by mutual respect. Smiles and laughter are a key part of each and every day: happy children make fantastic learners. We have high expectations in all aspects of school life; visitors often comment on the high standards of behaviour, the warm welcome they receive and the enjoyment in school life.

 

The community supporting Coxhoe Primary School is one of its many strengths and we value it hugely. The support we have from parents is second to none and we encourage honest and open dialogue; if you have queries or concerns about any aspects of school life, please make sure that you come and talk to us. Likewise – when you are particularly happy with something at school – it’s also lovely to hear about that too! Our children are at the heart of everything we do and every decision made.

 

As a parent of two daughters, I am well aware of the challenges that today’s society places on our children. In this climate, it is even more important to help our children become resilient and prepared for those challenges – through their experiences here in our school family. We will therefore endeavour to ensure that your children leave Coxhoe Primary School having had fun, done their best and feeling proud of their achievements; this will allow them to be ready to face the next challenges, not only in their education, but also in their life.

Schools Aims:

  • create a school ethos that is based firmly on mutual respect, trust and acceptance
  • provide enriching and enjoyable opportunities for all children to reach their potential and develop key life skills within a supportive, nurturing and welcoming environment
  • provide a broad and balanced curriculum that is tailored to the needs of the children in our community

Welcome from our Head Pupils

Hello and welcome to Coxhoe Primary School

Hello and welcome to Coxhoe Primary School. We want to tell you all about our school, we think it is the best school ever! It welcomes all pupils and everyone feels part of the family here. Everyone is included and will always have friends.
 
We have lots of different opportunities for us to learn, including: lessons, school trips, visitors and assemblies. As part of our curriculum, we have visited exciting places such as Beamish, Weardale and even London!
 
The teachers are amazing and they give you support at all times. They not only help you with your academic learning, they also help with your emotions too. Our teachers believe in us and encourage us to be the best we can be.  
 
Pupil voice in our school is integrated into every part of school life. Whether it is being apart of School Council, The Mini Police or even a Peer Mentor, our voices are heard! We feel that we are lucky to be a part of the Coxhoe family and that anybody considering joining our school family would be lucky too!
