Dear Parent/Carer,

Welcome to Shawlands Primary School website.

In Shawlands Primary School we aim to provide a calm, nurturing, purposeful learning environment which both challenges and supports our pupils to achieve their very best in everything they do. We aim to encourage each child to do this by making learning stimulating, relevant and enjoyable; developing the emotional, social, creative, physical, and intellectual skills necessary to fully engage in today’s world. We want to inspire all our pupils to become successful learners, confident individuals, effective contributors and responsible citizens.

We recognise that to enable each child to do their best, it is important that we work in close partnership with parents and carers. We will work with you to encourage your child to work hard and behave well.

The support of parents and carers is invaluable to the life of our school and Shawlands Primary has a culture of very positive parental engagement. We will strive to engage you in and keep you informed of developments; and we look forward to your participation in a range of activities and events in the life of the school.

Please do not hesitate to contact us if we can help you further.
