Our Vision

Ightham Primary School is nestled in the heart of the community where every child belongs. All our children will feel safe, happy and heard as we nurture their curiosity and inspire them to develop a life-long passion for learning.

Pupils leave Ightham Primary School with their understanding deepened, their minds enriched, and their hearts inspired, so that they love learning and embrace the challenges of the future.

Our Values

Our school values underpin our broad and balanced curriculum.

• Respect
• Aspiration
• Honesty
• Tolerance
• Caring
• Responsibility

As a learning community, we will think about when children learn, what children learn and how they learn.
