We hope you find the information on this site both interesting and informative.<\/p>\n<p>Masterton Primary School is based in the Eastern Expansion of Dunfermline. The school opened in November 2006 with only 5 classes. We now have 15 classes covering Primaries 1 \u2013 7 with a role of around 430 pupils.<\/p>\n<p>It is a single storey building with 2 main teaching areas. Primaries 1-4 are accommodated in one wing and P.5-7 are accommodated in another wing. An extension was added to the school in 2021 which houses the P.1\/2 and P.2 classes. Currently one class (P.3b) is based in the community lounge. An assembly hall \/ gym hall, music room and library areas make up the rest of the accommodation.<\/p>\n<p>Outside the school has large grounds with a large playing field timetabled for use by all the children. Play equipment including a climbing wall and gymnastic bars are also available in the playground.<\/p>\n<p>Our overarching aim at Masterton is summed up by our vision statement. We want everyone to become confident, responsible citizens within a secure and welcoming environment.<\/p>\n<p>At all times we strive to provide the highest possible standard of education to meet the needs of our pupils.<\/p>\n<p>We have a supportive Parent Council and an active Parent\/Teacher Association called FROMPS (Friends of Masterton Primary School).<\/p>\n<p>Masterton is firmly committed to an open-door policy and we welcome parents to school as equal partners in the provision of education for our pupils.<\/p>\n<p>Stephen Humphries, August 2024<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our Vision Statement \u00a0\u2018We aspire to be a place where everyone feels valued and respected,\u00a0where everyone will achieve their full potential in a welcoming environment that nurtures and challenges the whole child.
