Welcome to Whitehaven School.

 

Thank you for your interest.  I'm sure you won't be disappointed.

 

Here at Whitehaven we aim to create a pleasant, purposeful community in which each child has the opportunity to develop and achieve.  As a result, we place an emphasis on respect for others, good behaviour and hard work that leads to success.

 

We are proud of our students, staff and the positive atmosphere they create. There exists an excitement and vibrancy around school where everywhere you look student achievement is celebrated.

 

The School recognises all pupils as unique individuals with specific talents and needs. Students only get one chance and we take very seriously our role of providing the best possible opportunities. 

We are aware that the success of our students is dependent upon a positive relationship between home and school and so we encourage parents to visit school regularly and contact us should you have any concerns so that the home/school links remain strong.

 

The partnership between school staff, governors and other stakeholders is also an essential one. Together we can set challenges and our partners can ask ‘how can we do it even better'.

 

Please get in touch if you need any further details.
