Welcome

I wish you a warm and proud welcome to our wonderful Cotswold school.

Here at The Rissington School, every child is encouraged to discover their potential, develop confidence, and foster a lifelong love of learning through our vibrant and nurturing learning community.

We value kindness, respect and responsibility, and we strive to ensure that every child feels safe, seen, supported and celebrated.  Children at The Rissington School achieve well as a result of our inspiring, ambitious and relevant curriculum, which embraces creativity, curiosity and challenge for all.

 The school expects the best of everyone. Pupils rise to these high expectations. They work hard in lessons and take pride in their work.

We believe that education is a partnership between school, home and the wider community.  We foster a strong sense of belonging here in school, ensuring that every child feels valued, included and respected.  Through our curriculum and wider opportunities, we ensure that children learn about, learn from, experience and develop an understanding of their place within our local, national and international communities.

Rissington is a friendly and welcoming school where everybody gets along. Pupils are kind and respectful. They showcase the school’s values of ‘aspire, belong and challenge’ in all they do.

Our school is enriched by its wonderful surroundings and strong community spirit.  Whether in the classroom, exploring outdoors, taking part in sports or engaging in the arts, our children are offered a wide range of opportunities to grow academically, socially and personally.

Staff take quick and effective action.

I am incredibly proud to lead such a committed team of pupils, families and staff, all of whom share our passion for giving children the very best start in life.  Together, here at The Rissington School, we create a safe, happy and purposeful environment in which every child can thrive.

Pupils delight in celebrating their own and each other’s successes.

Thank you for visiting our website.  I warmly invite you to explore further and discover what makes The Rissington School such a special place.
