On behalf of our community, children and staff, a very warm welcome to Colne Engaine Church of England Primary School (part of the Diocese of Chelmsford Vine School Trust). We are a small, rural church school, situated in the thriving village of Colne Engaine.
At Colne Engaine School, we pride ourselves on offering a broad, enriching curriculum for all children, and on the strength of our integral school values.
Our strong Christian ethos, guided by our core Christian values of empathy, responsibility, integrity, compassion, equality and respect, (the ERICERs), are central to our school life, and in our provision of a uniquely engaging and warm environment in which all children can learn, enjoy and succeed. We strive to inspire our pupils to be lifelong learners, equipping each and every pupil with the skills, knowledge and mindset to succeed in the next stage of their education. We believe in furthering strengths and interests while supporting each child’s developmental needs, and through creativity, curiosity and high expectations, we aim to support out children in becoming responsible, successful citizens.
We are tremendously proud of our children’s hard work, their fearlessness, endless curiosity and the pride they take in their achievements. To create the highest possible outcomes for children we recognise the need to have the highest possible expectations of them and of ourselves as a school and ts is my privilege to welcome you and share with you as much information as we can to give you a sense of how we all work together to make our school a warm welcoming learning environment, where children are nurtured to thrive in every way.
If you would like to find out more about our school and community, please contact the school office to make an appointment. I would be delighted to meet you, to answer any questions you may have, and to show you around our wonderful school.
Mrs Samantha Dunne
Headteacher
