Together we enjoy, discover and learn
At Holystone Primary School, we believe that every child deserves a high-quality education that fosters their academic, social, and emotional growth. Our school is dedicated to creating a safe, inclusive, and supportive community where children thrive and enjoy the process of learning.
Our Values and Mission
As a school, we embody three core values: Respect, Community Spirit, and Resilience. We believe that these values are essential in shaping our daily interactions and guiding our actions. We aim to instil these values in our students, empowering them to become responsible, compassionate, and independent individuals. Our mission is to provide an outstanding education that enables our students to reach their full potential, grow, and make a positive impact in the world.
Our Curriculum
Our curriculum is carefully designed to cater to the diverse needs of our students. We offer a broad range of subjects, including English, Maths, Science, Computing, Art, Design Technology, Geography, History, Modern Foreign Languages, Music, and Physical Education. Our curriculum is divided into Key Stages, with each stage focusing on specific skills and knowledge. We believe that a well-rounded education is crucial in shaping our students' futures.
Admissions
We welcome applications from prospective parents who wish to join our school community. Our admissions process is designed to ensure that every child has an equal opportunity to access our educational programmes. For our Reception intake, we closely follow the guidance set by the Local Authority, with very similar over-subscription criteria. For our Nursery intake, we manage admissions ourselves, following the guidance applied to Reception admissions.
Early Years and Out-of-School Care
Our Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) is designed to provide a nurturing environment that caters to the Early Years' curiosity and creativity. We offer a range of activities that promote social, emotional, and cognitive development. Our out-of-school care provision is designed to provide flexible and affordable childcare solutions for working parents.

Our school boasts an array of modern facilities, including state-of-the-art classrooms, a dedicated library, and well-equipped outdoor play areas. Our resources are regularly updated to ensure that our students have access to the latest technology and teaching tools.
