Our goal is to establish a joyful, safe, and welcoming atmosphere where every member of the school community can increase their sense of self-worth, realise their full potential, and take pride in their accomplishments. Hello, and I'd like to welcome you to our website on behalf of the Governors, Staff, and I. In fact, our school's motto is Kitwell - Where Children are at the Heart of Everything We Do! Our school offers a highly caring environment where all staff members work incredibly hard to ensure that every child learns and feels cherished. Visitors frequently remark on how pleasant and welcoming the school is, which is something we are very proud of. We want to provide kids the tools they need to succeed academically, but we also feel that this can only be completely accomplished if parents, guardians, and other carers collaborate with the school to support the learning of their kids. All members of the school community should feel welcomed and valued as we work together for the benefit of our students. We also have a strong commitment to each child's safety and wellness, and we are honoured to have won a national Schools Wellbeing Award in the spring of 2019! At Kitwell, we have an open-door policy, so don't be afraid to get in touch with us if you have something to contribute or talk about. We appreciate you reading this and hope you enjoy exploring the remainder of our website to learn more about Kitwell. Please let us know if you'd like a hard copy of any of the data on our website.
