Welcome from the Headteacher
Welcome to Fairlawn Primary School.
Opened in September 2015 as a new school, Fairlawn Primary School, a member of E-ACT, is very proud to continue the long history of educating children in the magnificent buildings that were once a Victorian grammar school.
The children’s wellbeing and holistic development is at the heart of everything we do. All adults at Fairlawn are committed to providing a safe and secure environment for all pupils, ensuring their safety and prioritising their wellbeing at all times. The school day is designed to build confidence and skills in all aspects of child development. We believe that all our children are unique and have special talents to bring to our school community. We provide an engaging environment in which our children can be successful and feel happy to take risks, explore and ask questions.
I am proud to lead a passionate and caring team who are committed to achieving high standards and providing the best opportunities for our children.
Our knowledge rich curriculum focusses on our school, our community and our city. Designed to develop a deep sense of identity, pride, belonging and understanding of the world.
We ensure that our children understand their rights through the ‘Rights Respecting’ award from UNICEF. We are devoted to inspiring our children through the power of this programme, so they grow into respectful and caring members of society.
Fairlawn Primary School is a diverse school with the strong support of dedicated governors and an active PTA (Parents and Teachers Association – Friends of Fairlawn); the community is thriving and we welcome you to visit to find out more for yourself.
