Hello and welcome to the Overseal Primary School Website.

This website aims to offer a window into our school, as well as providing up to date information for parents, pupils and the wider community. We hope that most of the information that you need to know will be contained in the following pages; if not give us a call or drop us an email and we will do our very best to help.

We are extremely proud of our school. We are proud that Ofsted, in 2022, recognised that 'This is a happy school where every pupil is valued.' At Overseal, everyone is valued and our school mission is enable every child to achieve and shine. Our SATs results are usually above national data in all areas, placing us before, such as in 2024, in the top 20% of schools for achievement nationally. In our previous five OFSTED inspections (dating back to 2003), we have been judged as a good school with high standards both academically and socially. We value every child and get to know them all well. We value every member of the school community and do all we can to foster a sense of belonging, well- being and inclusion. We  believe all children can achieve, we seek to break down any barriers for all learners. We encourage all children to work hard in all they do. We do have very high expectations of our children and work closely with parents, carers and the wider community to ensure all children achieve at Overseal. 

We aim to provide a caring, kind and nurturing environment. Our core values are to be kind and create a happy school in which children can shine. We develop the whole child. We aim to create happy memories, opportunities for enrichment and a positive start for every child during their primary experience. We carefully plan how each year group will develop each child's cultural capital through our Overseal Shine passports. These provide memorable opportunities each year: such as to take part in a teddy bears' picnic or to go on a school residential. This ensures every child has the opportunity to shine at Overseal. 

We believe that we can only achieve the best for your child by close co-operation between home and school. Throughout their time at Overseal Primary, there will be many opportunities for you to share in your child's education and celebrate their successes. There may also be times when parents have concerns or worries and we hope you will always feel welcome to contact us at school to discuss them.

We fundamentally believe that every child deserves a positive Primary education which is why we strive to deliver a school which values everyone and where all can achieve and shine. 

If you would like to visit school, please ring for an appointment and we will be pleased to show you around and answer any questions that you may have.
