Wolvey Theologically-rooted Christian Vision

A warm welcome to Wolvey CofE Primary School. We are so glad you have found our on-line home and trust you can find the information you need quickly and simply. We always welcome visits to the school and our approachable office staff are standing by to help in any way they can.

 

As a school, we are totally committed to the safety, welfare and education of your child. To achieve this, we believe that working within a clear, positive and mutually supportive partnership between home and school is absolutely essential. Our strong desire is to equip your child for a future we can currently only dream of. This means providing them with the knowledge they need to be able to thrive, the skills they need to be able to succeed and the values they need in order to become sociable citizens of of our society.

 

We are proud that our passionate team of dedicated staff share this commitment and work tirelessly to ensure a clear curriculum demonstrates progression, rigour and command which is continually measured and monitored by the impact it is having.

 

Our values and ethos is based upon those historically promoted by the Church of England. Our proud Christian heritage and distinctiveness sets us apart whilst sitting comfortably alongside the 21st century values of inclusiveness, tolerance and respect.

 

Our school is run by human beings who invest time, energy, passion and pride into their work. As such, from time to time we may get things wrong. We highly value those who work with us and who make us aware of areas in which we can improve, but who do so within the same framework of values with which we seek to operate.

 

We would be delighted to have you partner with us and look forward to meeting you in the near future.

Mr Parker - Head of School

 

Welcome to our community school. My name is Mr Matthew Parker and this September, I will be entering my 4th year as Head of School. My vision is to lead a school where it is at the heart of the community and we are extension of your own family. We are incredibly proud to have a really unique and rare community where we all work and learn together in perfect harmony.

I am obsessive in ensuring your children get the very best possible start to their school journey and will work tirelessly to ensure they leave our school as real ambassadors for our community.

 

In June 2023, our school was judged as a GOOD school. We were also judged to be OUTSTANDING in our behaviours and attitudes. 

 

This is a quote from our report: 

'This school is at the heart of its community. Pupils are very happy. They feel safe and well cared for. The school serves a diverse community including families from military backgrounds, Gypsy, Roma and Traveller communities and families from local villages. Leaders ensure that all pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), and their families feel welcomed and included in school life. Leaders have high expectations of all their pupils.'

 

We can't wait to meet you and show you around our fantastic school!

Nepalese Families and Our Military Community

At Wolvey Primary School, we are incredibly proud of the strong and respectful relationships we have built with the Nepalese families based at the local military base, Gamecock Barracks.

Over 35% of our pupils travel to school each day via a dedicated coach service from the barracks. We are fortunate to have two valued members of staff, Mrs Rai, Mrs Simpson and Mrs Reed, who serve as Learning Support Assistants and work closely with our Nepalese families to ensure every child feels supported and included.

As part of our commitment to well-being, all Nepalese pupils take part in a tailored six-week mental health and well-being programme each academic year, helping to build resilience, confidence and a sense of belonging within our school community.

We also run a dedicated Military Lunchtime Club, where children from military families can connect, share experiences, and enjoy activities in a relaxed and supportive environment.

"I love coming to Military Club because we play games and talk about our families. It makes me feel happy and proud."
— Year 4 pupil

Our Gypsy, Roma and Traveller (GRT) Community

 

At Wolvey CofE Primary School, we proudly serve a rich and diverse community, with over 25% of all GRT children in Warwickshire attending our school. We believe every child is unique and deserves to be celebrated—reflecting our vision of embracing equality and experiencing excellence.

Rooted in our Christian ethos and inspired by Galatians 3:28, “…Among us you are all equal…”, we work in close partnership with our GRT families to foster understanding, belonging and mutual respect. Our inclusive approach promotes learning as a shared journey where cultural identity is honoured and supported.

For our GRT pupils, education at Wolvey is not only about academic achievement, but also about developing life skills, confidence and positive future choices. Our nurturing environment helps improve attendance and engagement, ensuring that every child is empowered to thrive.

“I like coming to school because I get to learn new things and be with my friends. My teachers help me and make me feel welcome.”
— Year 3 pupil

 

Each year we celebrate GRT month at Leek Wooten HQ.
