Marton-cum-Grafton Primary School

Welcome from Mrs Thirlaway, Headteacher

It is my privilege to welcome you to Marton cum Grafton Primary School and preschool – a popular school, held in high regards by the community it serves. The school offers high quality teaching in a supportive and nurturing environment underpinned by our school values of ‘kindness, courage and respect’.

Our dedicated and hard-working staff team are committed to fostering an environment where every individual is valued, supported, and encouraged to reach their full potential. They are passionate about providing an enriching educational experience that not only equips students with academic excellence but also nurtures their personal growth and character development.

We aim to make learning creative, stimulating, inclusive and fun with plenty of challenge and collaboration. Our children leave Marton cum Grafton with the skills and tools they need to become lifelong learners who are responsible, respectful and exemplary members of the community. As reflected in our Christian vision statement:

“Our children will be happy, safe and valued in a nurturing and inspiring community. They will aspire to be the best that they can be; believe in their abilities; and gain the confidence to achieve and to flourish in a diverse, exciting and ever-changing world.”

I am incredibly proud of what we have accomplished at Marton cum Grafton, and I am excited about the journey ahead as we continue to strive for excellence in all aspects of school life.
