About Us
Welcome to our website! I hope that it gives you a flavour of our wonderful school and the great work that happens within it every day.
I am very proud of the children, staff and governors at Waterbeach. Together we have created a school which has a community focus and develops the “whole” child. Our children are a joy to be with.
Ofsted agreed with us during our inspection in November 2019. The school maintained its status of a “good” school. The report states:
Waterbeach Community Primary School is a caring and friendly place. Staff help pupils to enjoy school, work hard and learn. Pupils get on well with each other, their teachers and other staff. They know that they can talk to staff if they have any concerns and that they will get the help that they need.
Our mission statement
Our school encourages each child to grow into a happy, confident individual, thriving in a supportive community where each is inspired to learn and discover through a kaleidoscope of opportunities, with space to imagine and to create.
“Learning, Laughter and Friendship”
These three values are at the heart of everything that happens at our school.
Each child will:
- Be inspired to learn, explore and discover
- Be encouraged to develop a growth mindset
- Develop the skills needed for their life ahead, “standing tall” in the world around them
- Be happy, healthy, resilient and a confident communicator
- Belong to and contribute to our caring school community
