Welcome to
South Stanley Infant & Nursery School
It is a real privilege to welcome you to South Stanley Infant & Nursery School.
South Stanley is a very special place. From the moment you walk through our doors, we want you to feel the warmth, care and sense of belonging that sit at the heart of our school. We are proud to be a small, friendly school where children are known as individuals, relationships matter and every child is encouraged to shine.
​
Our children are at the centre of everything we do. We want them to feel happy, safe and excited to come to school each day. We believe that the early years of education should be full of curiosity, creativity, laughter and memorable experiences, while also giving children the strong foundations they need for the future.
​
What makes South Stanley special is our strong sense of family and community. Our staff know our children well, celebrate their achievements and support them through every stage of their journey. We work closely with parents and carers because we believe children thrive when school and home work together.
​
We are proud of the caring, inclusive environment we have created, where every child is valued, encouraged and supported to achieve their very best. We want our children to leave us not only with knowledge and skills, but with confidence, kindness, resilience and wonderful memories of their time with us.
As Acting Headteacher, I feel incredibly proud to lead South Stanley Infant & Nursery School and to work alongside such dedicated staff, wonderful children and supportive families.
​
Whether you are already part of our school community or are considering joining us, I hope our website gives you a glimpse of what makes South Stanley so special.
​
We would love to welcome you into school and show you for yourself.

Here is a sample of what they have to say about our school:
​
The best thing about our school is learning a lot. I love doing science experiments where I pretend to be a scientist . I like all the teachers because they help me learn and they are sometimes a bit crazy when they sing and dance to help us learn.

Break times are the best in our school as I get to play with my friends. We have lots of exciting and fun climbing equipment. The Monkey Bars are my favourite because I like to challenge myself to swing further.

​
My favourite thing at our school is all the sports we get to do. I love sports. We get to play tag football and fun games with my friends and sometimes with other schools. I wish I did PE all the time. All of my teachers are great at PE especially when they try to beat us.

​
I love playing with my friends at playtime on the climbing equipment. I think we should get some more bikes so we can challenge each other. In school I love reading to my teachers and they always ask me lots of questions to help me think.
