headteacher's Welcome

Welcome to Slaithwaite C of E Junior and Infant School. Thank you for taking the time to visit our website. I am very proud to be the Headteacher of Slaithwaite CE Junior & Infant School. 

We are a thriving one-form entry primary school at the heart of the local community and are known for our nurturing, inclusive and caring ethos. We are placed in the lovely village of Slaithwaite and are part of the Leeds Diocese. 

At Slaithwaite CE Junior & Infant School we strive to help every child to enjoy every day, achieve great things and live life in all its fullness by inspiring them with rich, fun and exciting experiences and equipping them with a love of learning. 

Our school has a strong Christian ethos which builds on our core values of Respect, Relationships, Resilience, Responsibility & Reflection. With close links with our church- St James's Church and our dedicated team of staff, governors and parents, we take pride in 'learning and growing together in a love-filled Christian family'. 

You are most welcome to come along and visit. We look forward to working in partnership with you as together we can ensure your child has the best possible start in life.
