Dear children, families and friends
It is an absolute privilege to welcome you to Mulberry West St Leonards Primary. Whether you are a long-standing member of our school community or joining us for the very first time, you are stepping into a place where every child is seen, valued, and fiercely believed in.
Education is fundamentally about hope, opportunity, and the future. We are a school deeply rooted in our local coastal community, yet our horizons are completely limitless. Our two-form mainstream school has a fully inclusive resourced provision for children with complex physical disabilities who are fully included in the life of the school.
Being part of the Mulberry family means we refuse to put a ceiling on what our children can achieve. We marry the nurturing, supportive, and close-knit environment of our primary school with the boundless opportunities, rich creative partnerships, and academic ambition that the Mulberry name represents. Together, we ensure that every pupil, regardless of their starting point, receives an exceptional education that prepares them to thrive in an ever-changing world.
We know that a truly brilliant education balances rigorous academic standards with deep, unwavering warmth. We also recognise that raising the next generation is a profound, shared responsibility. The relationship between school and home is the bedrock of our pupils’ success. Your insights, your support, and your collaboration mean the world to us. We are not just a school in the community; we are a school for the community.
As your headteacher, my commitment to you is simple: our dedicated staff team will work tirelessly to ensure that your children leave us not just with strong academic foundations, but with the strength of character, the warmth of heart, and the bold confidence to shape their own destinies.
My door is always open. I look forward to working alongside you, celebrating our children’s victories and continuing to build a school of which we can all be phenomenally proud.
Established in 1878, we pride ourselves on our excellent teaching and fantastic facilities. Our happy, welcoming environment allows children to rise to challenges without fear of failure and to become confident lifelong learner. Excellent learning and friendship, flourishing childhood and joyful inclusivity is at the core of our oversubscribed school.
