Vision

“Prepared for life – in all its fullness”  - John 10:10

Our aspiration is for all pupils to leave Harpole Primary School with a love of learning and the academic and personal skills that will enable future success.

They will be resourceful, independent thinkers with the resilience and confidence to adapt to change and rise to challenges. They will excel in communication in its many forms.

As a Church of England school Harpole Primary belong to the Peterborough Diocese. The Education Directorate supports schools to ensure Christian vision and values are in all aspects of school life. Through the exploring of Christian teachings pupils will reflect upon their own spirituality and have the confidence to live by these values.

As members of the school, local and wider communities, Harpole pupils will know that they belong, understand their responsibilities, and be prepared for life.
