Welcome To Oldfield Primary School

Welcome to Oldfield Primary School

Welcome to Oldfield Primary School - a school where every child matters, every voice is valued and every child is encouraged to flourish.

Oldfield is a warm, ambitious and inclusive school at the heart of its community. It is our ambition that every child who joins us feels known, valued and confident in their ability to achieve great things.

It is our commitment to have high expectations for every child. Through excellent teaching and an ambitious curriculum, we provide the knowledge, skills and experiences that enable children to succeed, both at Oldfield and in the next stage of their lives. We celebrate progress, encourage children to embrace challenge and develop the resilience and confidence to keep going when things are difficult.

But primary education should be about more than academic success.

We endeavour to ensure children discover what they love, find what they are good at and continually experience new and exciting moments. Sport, physical activity, music, the arts, trips, visitors, residentials, clubs, leadership and opportunities to learn beyond the classroom are an important part of life at Oldfield. From the school leadership team to Y6 and reception buddies and from The Chester Walls to a residential to Chile, South America, these experiences help children discover new interests, develop their talents, challenge themselves, foster confidence and create memories that last.

Inclusion is fundamental to who we are. Every child has the right to feel that they belong, that they are listened to and that their voice matters. We are committed to removing barriers, celebrating difference and ensuring that all children can participate and contribute to school life. Our pupils are not simply members of our community - they are important contributors to it.

Our families are an equally important part of that community. We see parents and carers as partners in their children's education and believe that children thrive when home and school work together. There are many opportunities to share in school life - from celebration assemblies and performances to sports events, class activities, workshops, trips and opportunities to share in and celebrate children's learning. These moments are an important part of the Oldfield experience, bringing our community together and allowing families to see, first-hand, the experiences and achievements of their children.

Our CARE values - Cooperation, Achievement, Respect and Enjoyment - sit at the heart of everything we do. They guide the way we learn, the way we treat one another and the way we contribute to the community around us. They represent the qualities we hope every child carries with them long after they leave Oldfield.

For families considering Oldfield, we recognise that choosing a school is one of the most important decisions you will make. A website can give you a glimpse of school life, but nothing compares with experiencing Oldfield for yourself. We warmly invite prospective families to meet our children, talk to our staff, visit our classrooms and experience the atmosphere of our school.

There is a great deal to be proud of at Oldfield, and there is an exciting future ahead.

It is our ambition to be a school where children are known, valued, challenged and inspired; where excellence is pursued, individuality is celebrated and every child has the opportunity to belong, contribute and thrive.

Cooperation. Achievement. Respect. Enjoyment.

We are Oldfield.
