On behalf of the children, staff and governors we wish you a very warm welcome.
At Stanford Junior and Infant School we believe our role is to ensure that all of our children achieve the best they possibly can in an environment that stimulates a love of learning. We support our children to succeed academically, socially, personally and physically. We are extremely proud of our broad and balanced curriculum, which the children are fully engaged in.
The school environment is wonderful and we all ensure our school is a calm and safe place where children feel they are able to ask for support and advice.
Within our village school we continually work hard to keep developing a team of teachers, non-teaching and support staff that support each child in reaching their potential. Visitors comment on our supportive and friendly team and the positive atmosphere within our school.
We hope, as you visit our website, you will gain a sense of the value that we place in each child and our relentless aim to ensure high standards in all areas. Please feel free to contact the school if you would like any further information. We are always happy to help and look forward to showing you our wonderful school.

The Sleep Charity came to Stanford School today to see parents and children regarding sleep.
This exciting outdoor activity event brought together nature and learning to help improve children’s mental health and gave parents/ carers knowledge and understanding on how to improve their child’s sleep.
Children and their parents/ carers also had the opportunity to sign up to join the Primary School My Sleep Journal, an interactive book to learn and have fun with around the subject of sleep.
Thank you to the Governor and volunteer who helped improve our polytunnel at school.
They have helped plant winter veg - the pupils are excited about watching the cauliflowers, cabbage and cos lettuce grow and using the produce in their cooking!
A huge thank you to our Year 6 pupils for organising the Shoebox appeal and a huge thank you to our parents/ carers and community members for supporting this worthwhile cause! We had 17 boxes made up to send- amazing!!
A huge thank you to a wonderful (now)Year 7 pupil and their family who gifted the staff with a voucher for The Laceby Teapot at the end of summer. All the staff enjoyed a wonderful lunch to celebrate the end of term! Thank you-‘it was delicious!

During the Summer, Stanford School offered a week long holiday club (HAF) to engage pupils through a variety of activities. Throughout the week pupils took part in a wide range of learning opportunities including Steel pan Drums, Dancing, Soap Making, Sports activities, Cooking and we even had Nunny's Farm come and visit with their animals! A fantastic time was had by all pupils who thoroughly enjoyed the different learning opportunities!
Behaviour Ambassadors at Stanford School take a pride in spotting the amazing behaviours of our pupils in and around school! They look out each day for amazing manners and behaviours to their learning. Each day two new behaviour ambassadors are chosen. We have updated our Ambassador badges from Stickers and badges to Lanyards! The pupils love wearing these with pride for the day, showing all staff and pupils their important role. Each week, the behaviour ambassadors are shared and celebrated in our Celebration Assembly!
Mrs Hackfath, Mrs Smith and our Head Pupils visited St Margaret’s Church this morning to pay their respect to Queen Elizabeth II. Head pupils laid flowers as well as all signing the book of condolence for Her Majesty. A very special morning.

Have you heard about Boots' scheme, 'Ask for Jesse'?
Boots UK is working in partnership with The Hygiene Bank to help close the hygiene poverty gap by providing free dental products to vulnerable families.
(Fun fact: Jesse Boot was the son of John Boot, who founded The Boots Company. However, it was Jesse that transformed Boots into a national retailer).
