Headteacher's Welcome
Ormskirk School is a warm and welcoming place, filled with wonderful children and a dedicated staff, all here to welcome you to our community. We’re proud to be part of Endeavour Learning Trust,
where we enjoy the benefits of belonging to a successful family of schools with a proven track record.
Our vision for every student at Ormskirk School is simple yet meaningful: Proud to Belong. We want each child to feel proud to be part of a school that is aspirational, inclusive, and kind.
Aspirational – At Ormskirk, we inspire students and staff to always do their best. With encouragement to persevere and embrace challenges, we cultivate a growth mindset that values hard work and determination, empowering everyone to reach their full potential and celebrate meaningful achievements.
Inclusive – Ormskirk is a welcoming, diverse community where every individual is respected and valued. We embrace all backgrounds, abilities, and identities, fostering a sense of belonging and equal opportunity. By promoting empathy and understanding, we create a supportive environment where students and staff can thrive together.
Kind – Kindness is central to our school’s ethos. We encourage compassion, respect, and patience, creating a nurturing atmosphere where students and staff support one another. Through acts of kindness, we build positive relationships, teaching students the importance of empathy and mutual care within and beyond our community.
To make this vision a reality, your child will experience a balanced approach that values both academic progress and exceptional pastoral care. Our belief is that every child has unique potential, and our top priority is to truly understand each child’s unique qualities. Building strong relationships with families is at the heart of this commitment, and we’re dedicated to serving our community here in Ormskirk.
We are passionate about creating a nurturing environment where children grow to be happy, respectful, and independent. Each child’s successful development is a mission we hold dear, and we believe every child deserves to feel safe, well-supported, and inspired by the joy of learning and the pride that follows hard work.
One of our core priorities is fostering a spirit of community and a genuine family feel within our school. Our students are supported by key staff members who challenge them to be their very best. We strive for a balance between academic and personal growth, giving each child the support and encouragement they need, alongside the stretch and challenge that helps them grow.
At Ormskirk, we treat every child with the care we would want for our own children. This commitment creates an environment where students feel safe, valued, and inspired to succeed. We are thrilled to welcome you and your child to the Ormskirk family.
