Our core values underpin all aspects of our school life:
Care Imagine Believe Strive Achieve
We create a safe and stimulating environment where we respect the property of others and ourselves; we show respect and understanding and will recognise and respect individuality and children’s differing experiences.
We nurture all forms of creativity, delivering a curriculum that develops each child where originality is valued and we encourage communication, thinking skills and problem solving.
We believe in the limitless potential of our learners and that through expert teaching and support all children can achieve a high standard. Our aim is to enable everyone to realise their full potential, to encourage self-motivation and encourage children to be proud of their own achievements.
Stamford Bridge Primary – a popular school, held in high regard by the community it serves. The school offers high quality teaching and excellent pastoral care. We attract families from Stamford Bridge and neighbouring villages.
Our dedicated and hardworking staff team are committed to ensuring our children do well in all that they do. Our expectations are high and achievements and successes of all kinds are expected and celebrated. We try to make learning creative, stimulating, inclusive and fun with plenty of challenge and collaboration.
Our children leave Stamford Bridge with the skills and tools they need to become lifelong learners who are responsible, respectful, and exemplary members of their community.
Our ethos is under-pinned by a school motto and our 4 ‘best’ values,
Nurturing a love of learning through excellence, inspiration and wonder.
Believe • Engage • Succeed • Together
We believe a close partnership between home and school is central to achieving this and look forward to working with you and your child throughout their time at Stamford Bridge Primary School.
We pride ourselves on being a community of ambitious, respectful and committed individuals. At Pocklington Junior School, we meet the needs of each child, promote positive values, and aim to make each day enjoyable and rewarding. School life is for both adults and children underpinned by the concept of respect; for ourselves, for others and for the wider community. We have unashamedly high expectations of behaviour and attitude towards learning; no one can be the best at everything, but we expect everyone to try their best on a daily basis and aim high in everything they do.
Our provision is geared toward developing individual talents and celebrating success in all aspects of school life. However, our school is only one half of the story – we know that parents are the most vital role models. We need your support to work alongside our dedicated staff to help your children reach their potential.
Everything you do should be worthy of great merit, character and value.
Woldgate is a positive, warm and welcoming school where pupils aim to do their very best and take pride in their achievements. By constantly challenging our pupils to excel, we nurture aspirations and strive to cultivate a lifelong love of learning in our young people.
We provide a creative, safe and caring environment where every child is known and cared for as an individual. In this climate, every young person has the opportunity to thrive as they develop in personality, character and intellect and become highly successful learners and individuals.
We believe we provide a unique education for our young people. As a school at the heart of the community it serves, we work in partnership to ensure our children not only receive a broad and balanced education, but also have the opportunity to enjoy the Yorkshire Wolds and make a wider contribution to the area in which they live.

Great heart, thought and vision.
At Longcroft we believe that every child should be known and cared for as an individual. We are an inclusive, welcoming community which, with the support of parents, provides a caring, safe and welcoming environment in which to learn and grow. We are a school where your child’s individual gifts and talents can flourish.
Our partnership with parents is at the heart of our success as a school. We believe good communication is essential to ensure you are kept informed. As a parent we want you to feel part of our community and able to effectively support your child and our school. We will, therefore, work hard to establish a positive partnership that will support your child and you as a parent. Through our weekly newsletter we will also share the many successes, opportunities and events that are available throughout the school year. You will also be welcome to join our Friends of Longcroft School Association, run by parents on behalf of our children and the school.
We are, as a school, true to our values, offering a rich and varied range of enrichment opportunities, outside the formal curriculum. From our drama productions, music and sport our young people have a vast array of choices. In addition, our Skills for Life programme provides our children with those skills that are highly sought by employers and universities, for instance, leadership, communication, organisation and teamwork.

Endeavour I Courage I Ambition I Character
A warm welcome to Whitby School, a school community where history and traditions are cherished. Our school is a place where opportunities and experiences instil a love of learning and aspirations are nurtured. We encourage our pupils to aim high and be proud of their achievements as they strive to excel in their learning.
We will provide a creative, safe, and caring environment where every child is known and cared for as an individual. In this climate, every young person can thrive as they develop in personality, character and intellect and become a highly successful learner and individual.
As a school at the heart of the community it serves, we will work in partnership to ensure our children not only receive a broad and balanced education but also allow them to enjoy the area they live in and make a positive wider contribution to the community.
Joining our family
We welcome all opportunities to work with colleagues from schools across the region. There are several opportunities available to work with us from becoming a strategic partner, utilising our Institute of Education, joining as a Cluster Partner, and of course becoming your home if you are looking to join a Trust.
Becoming a part of the Wonder family is something truly special and we look forward to hearing from you.
It is important, once schools have made the decision to join our partnership, that they feel fully supported in that venture. We will, therefore, allocate a leader to oversee the process, to support colleagues at your school and to liaise with external agencies. We aim to make the process as smooth as possible and to minimise any impact upon the operation, leadership, or governance of the school, providing key updates and managing the technicalities, so you can remain focused on the children.
