Headteacher's Welcome
On behalf of the staff, children and governors, I would like to welcome you to Castletown Primary School's website. As Headteacher, I certainly feel very privileged to be part of such a vibrant and welcoming school community and I am very proud to lead such a fabulous school. We have fantastic children, dedicated, hard-working staff and very supportive parents and governors. We are a school family that 'nurtures excellence, aspiration and discovery'.
My vision, as head teacher, is to continue to provide high quality education for all the children in our care recognising individual talents and ensuring that opportunities are provided so that all can reach their full potential. I will strive to ensure that every child within our school is nurtured so that they may grow to become confident, caring and compassionate young people. I believe that your child has the potential to do amazing things and that if we work together to support their learning journey, this potential can become a reality.
Our website can only give you a flavour of some of the things that happen in our school. Enjoy browsing the pages and I hope you like what you see. I would be delighted to meet you and have the privilege of showing you around our very special school. It is important that we know how parents feel about the school. Please do not hesitate to get in touch if you have any queries, concerns or if there is anything I can do to support your child's learning and school life.
Mr. L. J. Duncan
Headteacher
