Lindley CE Infant School

Welcome from the Head Teacher

Thank you for visiting our website. We have a very successful and happy school that is held in high regard by the local community and where our children tell us they are happy, secure and enjoy learning. The school has been judged as good by Ofsted after the school underwent a full inspection in May 2022 - click here to read the inspector's report.

The staff and Governors value our Christian foundation and you will see this reflected in the high quality of care that we offer to all our children and in the variety of opportunity we offer through our enriched curriculum. We are an inclusive school where all members of our school family are valued as individuals and for the contribution they make to our high academic standards and pastoral care.

Our Christian ethos ensures that children are taught to be thoughtful and generous toward others. Our core values of Respect, Friendship and Trust are used to support the outstanding behaviour in school and children can tell you what the values mean to them. We have high expectations of their work and behaviour but the children know that this is a safe place to make mistakes and to learn from them. We have 12 classes and 360 children with a waiting list of families for each year group.

Working closely with parents is important to us and there are many opportunities for you to become actively involved in the life of the school. The Governors regularly consult with parents and include them in the schools strategic planning processes.

If you are considering Lindley CE Infant school for your child, I would encourage you to make a visit. Please contact the school office on 01484 646888 to arrange a visit. Lindley is a large and busy school, but one of our priorities is to ensure that families are kept informed about what is happening in school. We are all here to help, so please ask if you need assistance.

We look forward to welcoming you to our school.

Mrs Kate Dilworth

Lindley CE Infant School is 70!

We had a fabulous week last week celebrating our 70th birthday, thank you to everyone who has taken part in and contributed in some way to the events and activities that have taken place. We had a special service at St Stephen's, lots of families have taken part in the Birthday Trail around Lindley Village Hight Street, and the children did brilliantly taking part in the sponsored Dinosaur Stomp!

Scarecrow Festival and Competition

This year, we would like to recognise our school's birthday through the theme of 'Lindley through the decades' as part of the Lindley Scarecrow Festival which takes place from Friday 4th - 6th October. The scarecrows the children have brought in this week are fabulous, and there will be a prize for a winning scarecrow from each class, which is being announced this week. The scarecrows will be on display in the school grounds this week for all to enjoy!
