About Us

Welcome to Shaftesbury Park Primary School, where every child is valued, inspired, and supported to reach their full potential. We pride ourselves on creating a welcoming, inclusive, and vibrant learning environment, where curiosity, creativity, and confidence are at the heart of everything we do.

UNICEF Right's Respecting Gold Award

We are proud to be a Gold Award Rights Respecting School and sit on the steering committee to help other schools embed children’s rights into everyday practice. This commitment runs through all aspects of school life, ensuring that children understand their rights and see them enacted in real, meaningful ways. It shapes our values, our curriculum, and the way our community interacts—fostering respect, empathy, and responsibility in every child.

Bilingual and Enterprise curriculum options for families and children

Our curriculum offers award-winning opportunities designed to excite and engage both children and parents. In our immersive French afternoons, lessons are delivered entirely in French alongside a structured grammar programme and social curriculum, giving children a functioning ability to communicate confidently. Our Enterprise Education programme, in partnership with Skills Builder, explicitly teaches eight essential skills while weaving them through lessons so children gain practical experience, develop entrepreneurial thinking, and connect learning to the world of work.

Global context for learning

Everything we teach is delivered through a curriculum with an international perspective and a cross-subject approach. Subjects are interconnected, not isolated, helping children make meaningful connections and see knowledge as a coherent whole. This approach nurtures critical thinking, curiosity, and a deeper understanding of the world.

At Shaftesbury Park Primary, we believe learning should be inspiring, fun, and empowering. Our safe, supportive environment encourages every child to flourish academically, socially, and emotionally, preparing them to succeed now and in the future.
