Welcome to William Barnes, where every child matters. Here, pupils, staff and governors are committed to supporting each other so our children are able to learn and grow in a safe environment where everyone is encouraged to achieve their best.
We believe in a “Growth Mindset”, where everyone can succeed if they work hard and recognise new challenges as opportunities. Underpinning this belief, is our conviction that the development of healthy, emotionally resilient children will lead to independent thinkers and confident learners.
At William Barnes, we know that success is rooted in strong partnerships between all members of our school community. I am regularly available on the playground before school for a chat, alternatively, private appointments can be made via the school office.
This is a very special place; please do look at our Vision and browse the site to learn more!
