From the Wardley CofE Primary School
We are a Church of England school that celebrates and acknowledges the individuality of every child and affirms their fundamental right to receive a quality education in a setting that is secure, nurturing, and safe. Our ethos, which is based on Christian principles, motivates us to believe that we are capable of anything. The goal of Wardley CE Primary School is to always improve so that what we do now will be even better tomorrow. We offer a joyful, safe, and encouraging learning atmosphere where the kids may become independent, work hard to maximise their talents, and discover that "We Can Do Everything" within a thorough and rich curriculum. A foundational set of 18 Christian ideals serves as the backbone of our belief that we are capable of anything. This guarantees that Christ is at the centre of our community of learners. The five main objectives for our school are supported by five of these ideals. These comprise the Wardley Way.
