Headteacher’s Welcome

Welcome to Charlton-on-Otmoor Church of England Primary School. Charlton is a caring
and nurturing primary school nestled in history amongst the rural Oxfordshire countryside.

Our school sits at the heart of the local community. We work in partnership with governors,
families, and community members to support our children to achieve their full potential.
We are also very fortunate to have a great PTA that supports us and helps us give the
children the best learning opportunities we can.

Our school vision, ’Aspire and Grow Together’, brings together our commitment to ensure
that every child aspires to be the best they can be and our emphasis on the children being
part of a school family where they grow together through joint experiences. As a church
school, we ensure that all pupils, whatever their faith, are equipped with a good moral,
spiritual and cultural grounding. All our work is underpinned by our six core Christian
Values – Love, Respect, Kindness, Forgiveness, Resilience and Honesty. The children have
many opportunities to live out these values in their everyday lives both within their classes
and across the school.

The staff have created a rich and relevant curriculum that is delivered within a supportive,
friendly and nurturing environment which enables all children to thrive. We have excellent
facilities which allow us to provide both indoor and outdoor learning opportunities,
including Forest School sessions, to help foster confident, independent learners.

Please contact us if you have any questions, queries or are interested in a place for your
child.
