Welcome from the Headteacher, Mrs K Smith

Welcome to Glusburn Primary School and our website. I hope that you will find it informative. As a parent I know that choosing the right school for your child can be a daunting task; let me assure you that in choosing our school, your child will be getting the very best start to their learning journey in education. Our school is home to over 400 children and over 50 staff. It is the largest within the cluster of seven schools in the South Craven area. We can be found in a beautiful part of the country, with a rolling hillside providing the backdrop to our well situated school; located en-route to Lancashire, whilst a short distance from Skipton and Keighley. We have a large playing field to the rear, a substantial outdoor area for the Early Years Foundation Stage, an outdoor classroom, trim trail, a gardening area, a traversing wall, a separate playground for each Key Stage and a conservation area known as the ‘millennium garden’

We have high expectations of the children in our school.  Our staff work hard to provide an environment where children can thrive.  Children are asked to work hard and behave well so that they achieve their potential in all areas.  We recognise the importance of a positive school experience and we are committed to providing wider opportunities and to promoting healthy lifestyles including positive mental health.  We are a ‘rights respecting’ school recognising the UNICEF rights of a child.

If you would like to find out more about us please do get in touch.
