About Us
Gillingstool Primary School - Headteacher's Welcome
A huge welcome to the Gillingstool Primary School website. If you are a new family or a visitor thinking of joining us for the first time, we can’t wait to welcome you to our school team.
Gillingstool is such a special place where all members of our school community are valued and championed to be their best selves. We are extremely proud of our diverse community and love the opportunities this provides us with to learn from each other.
At Gillingstool, people are placed at the heart of decision-making and all members of our school team are nurtured and championed to reach their full potential. Our aim is for pupils to be happy, self-assured, respectful and caring so that they leave us knowing their worth as well-rounded individuals wanting to contribute to their local, national and global societies.

Headteacher
We have carefully selected our core values of inclusivity, ambition, perseverance, curiosity, creativity and kindness as we believe that these will provide all members of our school community with the foundations to flourish as individuals.
Through a caring ethos, our staff team seek to maximise every child’s potential, by working together with you as families to provide an education tailored to each individual’s needs. We strive to ensure there is support where needed and challenge where appropriate to stretch the minds of all students.
Across the curriculum, we will develop creativity, curiosity, initiative, independence and most importantly your child’s confidence and self-belief so that they feel empowered to take their next steps they in their educational journey knowing we will always be here to support them. Once a member of Team Gillingstool, always a member of Team Gillingstool.
We hope that our school website provides you with plenty of information about the school and details about our curriculum. However, if you have any further questions, please just pop into the school office, speak to a member of staff or send an email and we will respond as soon as possible.
I look forward to welcoming you to the Gillingstool Primary School community.
