Welcome To Sandiway Primary School

It is a real privilege to welcome you to our school and to share a little of what makes Sandiway such a special place. Whether you are already part of our school family or are visiting us for the first time, I hope you will quickly see the warmth, care and sense of belonging that make our school unique.

Having been part of the Senior Leadership Team at Sandiway Primary School for many years before becoming Headteacher in September 2026, I know our children, families and community incredibly well. I have had the pleasure of watching so many children grow from their very first days in school into confident, caring and resilient young people.  I feel incredibly proud to now lead the next chapter of our school's journey as we continue to strive to be the best we can be.

At Sandiway, our vision of Growing and Achieving Together reflects the way we work every day. We know that children achieve the most when we all work together and we value the strong relationships we build with parents, carers and our wider community.

Our values of Respect, Ownership, Care and Kindness are at the heart of everything we do. They shape the way we learn, the way we care for one and other and the way we celebrate individual’s strengths and talents. We want every child who walks through our doors to know that they belong, are valued and can achieve their full potential.

Above all, Sandiway is a happy school. It is a place where laughter is heard, achievements are celebrated, friendships are nurtured and children are encouraged every day. We are passionate about providing an engaging, exciting and empowering education for our children and are proud to offer rich experiences that spark curiosity, encourage creativity and build confidence. We have high expectations for every child as they develop the life experiences, skills and knowledge they need to support them in an ever-changing world.

Thank you for taking the time to visit our website. I hope it gives you a flavour of what makes Sandiway Primary School such a welcoming and enjoyable place to learn. We would be delighted to welcome you to our school and look forward to meeting and getting to know you and your family.

With our best wishes,

Kathryn Harvey
Headteacher
