Welcome to Roskear Primary & Nursery School and Crofty Minors Pre-School

‘LEARNING TOGETHER FOR A BETTER FUTURE’

I am very proud to be the Headteacher of Roskear Primary and Nursery School and Crofty Minors Pre-School. Roskear is situated in Camborne, an old mining town, in West Cornwall. We are a large two-form entry Primary School with approximately 490 fabulous children (aged 2-11). I am delighted that you have taken the time to find out more about Roskear, where the children embody our core values of being caring, active, ambitious, inquisitive and happy. As you explore our website and school, you will find many examples of this.

Our highly talented and well-trained teaching staff are ambitious for every child in their care and bring excellence and enjoyment together to the classroom. We know that children learn best when they are excited and engaged, so we have created a curriculum which does just that. At Roskear the excellent teaching challenges the children and shows them what they can achieve. Our results are evidence of the fact that children at Roskear make progress, well above National expectations year after year.

We place great emphasis on developing strong relationships with all our children, parents/carers, along with our local and wider community, to provide the best possible outcomes for our children.

My door is always open to parents, carers, prospective parents and, of course, to our children. As a school, we value all feedback and believe that the best way for our children to succeed is by everyone working together.

If you would like to arrange a visit, please call Mr Bostrum, our school secretary, and I will be happy to welcome you to our school.
