Principal’s Welcome.
At Springton Primary School, we pride ourselves on offering a unique and successful educational experience. Our school is a place where learning and belonging are at the forefront, creating a connected and proud community. Here, every individual is seen, heard, and inspired to achieve their best. We foster an environment where everyone can contribute and feel valued.
Being a small school is our strength. It allows us to provide personalised learning experiences and dedicated attention to each student, ensuring they receive the very best education. Our focus on effective learning is central to everything we do. Our school community is united, dynamic, open to innovation and always responsive to new ideas and needs. We celebrate successes and continually strive for improvement.
Our team of experienced and dedicated educators is committed to empowering students to belong, learn, and thrive. We adopt best practices and a strengths-based approach, creating success and a warm, welcoming learning environment.
We cultivate learning through:
- Curiosity: Encouraging exploration and inquiry.
- Creativity: Fostering innovative thinking and problem-solving.
- Collaboration: Promoting teamwork and the sharing of ideas.
- Growth: Emphasising continuous improvement and learning.
- Agency: Empowering students to take charge of their learning.
Wellbeing and self-awareness are crucial to success. We prioritise these to ensure students can focus on learning while developing self-confidence and resilience. Our supportive environment, guided by strong school values, positive dispositions and social-emotional frameworks, helps students manage challenges and emotions. Our ‘team’—comprising staff, peers, and families—work together to support each learner’s journey.
Our students say it best:
“The students feel happy at school and like they can belong and be themselves at school.”
“This school has a purpose to make people feel like they can learn and make mistakes and improve.”
Springton Primary School nurtures learners as capable individuals who believe in their potential to grow, succeed, and contribute to their community.
We would love the opportunity to share our school with you to see if we are a good fit for your vision of the right learning community for your family.
Warm regards,

Leah Richards
