Welcome
Headteacher's Welcome
It gives me great pleasure to welcome you to Pilling St John’s CE Primary School and Nursery website. Here you can get a snapshot of who we are and what we do! At Pilling St John’s CE Primary School and Nursery, we value the contribution each child brings, and we encourage them to develop as an individual within a strong Christian community. We are very proud to be at the heart of the Pilling community and place great values on the links we have made. A broad, balanced and stimulating curriculum is offered, supported by a wide range of extra-curricular activities. This encourages and enables the children to be the best that they can be and always set their standards and goals high. We believe that a happy child is a successful one who will flourish. Our mission statement underpins everything we do, ‘Growing roots, standing firm in faith and being bold in all we do.’ By working in close partnership with parents, we endeavour to ensure that all our pupils have an excellent start to their education. The commitment from both the staff and governors to make this school the best possible place for our children to learn is clearly evident in everything that happens. The children, staff, governors and our families all believe that Pilling St John’s CE Primary School and Nursery is a brilliant place to learn and grow. If you have any questions or wish to contact us, please don’t hesitate to do so. The type of school we are, and the ethos we share can only be judged by visiting us. Prospective parents are always welcome to visit during the working day and see the school in action for themselves. We look forward to welcoming you to our school family!

'Growing roots, standing firm in faith and being bold in all we do.'
We are a creative, forward thinking Church of England Primary School that provides an all-round education of the highest quality for each and every child. We aim to provide genuine, meaningful experiences that enable children to be the best that they can be. Through these, our children become confident and curious learners rooted with self-belief and respect for others. In partnership with families, we encourage all to become successful, able and responsible members of the global community. We expect everyone to strive to do their very best for themselves and for each other. We want everyone to be involved in learning, aim for achievement at their highest possible level and experience and celebrate success.
