Coronavirus Latest
Here is a document called "Children's Guide to Coronavirus" from the Children's Commissioner. It may be useful as a starting point for conversations with children if they are worried about the current situation. It's quite long and worth looking through first, before you discuss it with children.
We hope you are managing to cope with this new way of working we are all trying to get used to.
School is ONLY open to children of critical workers who are not able to arrange care for their children at home. The principle we must all follow is - if you can care for your child at home you must do so to avoid any possibility of transmitting the virus. A huge thank you to the staff team who have provided cover in school for those children who need it.
If you are in a critical role and need care for your child/ren please get in touch with us at school as we will only open the building when we need to.
We are expecting children to be online more than usual during this time of school closures, for school work and keeping in touch with friends and families as well as their usual game play etc. There are some very good resources for parents here from Think U Know*, including family activity packs designed to teach children how to staff safe online.

NEWS: We are very pleased to announce that Wiltshire Schools Effectiveness Team have congratulated Lacock Primary School on School Performance. "We would like to take this opportunity to congratulate you on the recently validated outcomes achieved by your pupils in 2019, which are amongst the best primary schools in Wiltshire. We would particularly like to recognise your achievements in the areas listed below:
At the end of the Early Years Foundation Stage, your school has achieved significantly higher than the national average.
In the Year 1 Phonics screening check, your school has achieved significantly higher than the national average.
We appreciate that these very good outcomes are due to the sustained commitment, hard work and success of your staff, governors and pupils"
At our last OfSTED inspection we were graded as a GOOD school. The full report is available below.
We are also graded GOOD under the SIAMS (Statutory Inspection of Anglican & Methodist Schools) inspection arrangements for church schools - our latest inspection took place on the 4th July 2017 and the inspection report can be found here.
Lacock Primary is a small school in the heart of the historic village of Lacock. We'd love to share with you what we do - please browse our website to find out all about us.

Lacock is a beautiful village in Wiltshire, still looking largely as it did two hundred years ago. From the outside our school looks just like it did when it was built in 1824 but on the inside it is a lively and exciting place of learning.
We all know each other and we all look out for each other. The teachers and other adults know what each child needs to do to get better. The children are focussed on learning and love to share what they have achieved, both in lessons and out of school.
Parents are a vital part of all children’s learning and we value all the work that goes on at home and out of school to support the children. We are always thrilled to share what the children have been doing over weekend and in the evenings.
The Friends of Lacock School are also a vital part of the school community and raise much needed funds to enhance the children’s learning. Part of the money raised goes towards funding educational visits which allows the children to visit a range of places linked to their learning.
The governors of Lacock School work to both support and challenge the school. They come from a wide range of backgrounds and bring a range of skills to the school.
In summary we are proud to be a village school at the heart of our community and working with all members of it to provide the best education we can for the children in our classes. I am proud to be the headteacher of the school and would love to show you all that goes on here – please do browse our website to get a picture of what we do but even better why not visit and let us show you why the children love coming to school every day..
