Our School Motto:

"Let your light shine"

Matthew 5: 15

Let your child’s light shine in an incredible learning environment tailored to the understanding and diverse needs of each child.

Our Vision

At St Bartholomew’s we provide a gate way of discovery through our diverse curriculum and nurture global disciples who positively impact God’s gift to us – the world.  Our curriculum enables our learners to recognise their place in Pinchbeck West; the importance and value of where they live.  It aims to develop agents of change who are taught to protect the environment, solve problems to ensure society is a better place and take responsibility for their actions to make the future a somewhere far improved from where it is.  There is a clear focus on developing a rich vocabulary through a text centred approach and providing learners with the opportunity to independently gain powerful knowledge to ensure their future success.  Through boundless forgiveness, compassion and a safe learning environment our children can Let their Light Shine (Matthew 5:16).  We learn to love responsibly by developing the skills and knowledge needed under God’s spiritual counsel, bringing light to all those around us.  We are beacons of hope an our communities guided by God’s spirit and love.

Additional Information

Attendance 2023-24

All schools are expected to keep their attendance over 96%. If your child has a cold, they should still be in school.  If you need any help with attendance, please speak to Miss Ingle as she will help in any way that she can.  Dr Chris Whitty released this statement via the DfE: “It is usually appropriate for parents and carers to send their children to school with mild respiratory illnesses. This would include general cold symptoms: a minor cough, runny nose or sore throat. However, children should not be sent to school if they have a temperature of 38°C or above.”
