Vision and Aims
At Gosbecks Primary school we work together as a team to enable our children to ‘Be the Best they can Be’. Our aim is to give the children the best possible start in life and make their time at school a fun, enjoyable, rich experience. We understand that all of our children are unique individuals and therefore will be treated with respect, tolerance and kindness. These attributes underpin our expectations for all our children so they are prepared as well rounded children when they move onto Secondary school.

Gosbecks School was opened in 1957. The school has its own playing fields and is situated in very pleasant surroundings. The grounds have a variety of wild life habitats including a pond and a woodland area, all of which are used by the children for study. We also have an outdoor classroom, a herb garden and class allocated allotment boxes. Within the school there is a modern well equipped kitchen where hot meals are prepared and served daily by the school's catering team.
Gosbecks School is located in an area of historical importance being within walking distance of Gosbecks' Archaeological Park. On the site there are the remains of a Pre-Christian Temple and a Roman Theatre. Surrounding the site is a complex Iron Age defensive dyke system. For more information visit the link below.
