Message from the Headteacher

Welcome to Cowley St Laurence Church of England Primary School’s website.  Whether you are a prospective parent, student, member of staff, parent or governor, we hope that you find the information you are looking for here.  We pride ourselves on being a warm,  friendly school that welcomes visitors and actively encourages a partnership with parents.

At Cowley St Laurence Primary School, we are proud to be an inclusive school.  We provide a high quality, creative and challenging education within a secure, caring and happy environment, where every child experiences a sense of enjoyment and is encouraged to achieve their full potential through a love of learning.

Cowley St Laurence is a warm welcoming and supportive school where a great emphasis is placed on all round personal development, as well as academic progress. As a Church of England Primary School, our aim is that all children grow in the faith of God and our school motto, 'Strong in Faith - Kind in Heart - United in Success  'helps all of those who are part of Cowley St Laurence to understand this.

We also believe that education is a life long process and that whatever children learn at Cowley St Laurence will form the building blocks for the rest of their lives.  We have built a relevant and carefully constructed curriculum, which takes in to account the national requirements and the needs of our community and enables all children to develop, providing opportunities for them to achieve high standards.

Cowley St Laurence is part of the LDBS Frays Academy Trust along with three other local primary Schools: St Matthews C.E. Primary School, Laurel Lane Primary School and St Martin's C.E. Primary School.  As part of the Academy we are able to develop high quality teaching and learning so as to give all our children the best possible opportunities in their primary education.

We are committed, as part of the vision of the LDBS Frays Academy Trust, that all children should reach their potential and achieve standards at least in line, and hopefully above national expectations.

Cowley St Laurence Nursery is part of the school and the school values and ethos is continued into the Nursery.  We believe that the year that children spend in the Nursery is very important and is the start of the children's journey in education.  The curriculum is designed to enable all children to develop and achieve.

We hope that you enjoy your visit to our website. Please feel free to l contact the school with any queries you may have.
