My name is Mrs Turner-Rowe, and I have the privilege of being the Headteacher of both Chellaston Infant and Chellaston Junior Schools. It's a real joy to lead two schools that share not only a close working relationship but also a deep commitment to nurturing children through a seamless and inspiring primary journey. At Chellaston, we hold three simple but powerful rules at the heart of our school life: Be Kind, Be Ready, Be Safe. These values guide everything we do, from how we treat one another to how we learn and grow together. Our dedicated staff team works in strong partnership across both school sites, creating a welcoming, exciting and secure environment where every child is supported to shine. We believe education should develop the whole child, their character, creativity and curiosity, as well as their academic strengths. Our curriculum encourages children to take risks in their learning, show integrity in their actions, and demonstrate determination and effort in everything they do. We celebrate each child's progress and success, always striving to help them become confident, caring and capable young people. Our PRIDE values, Partnership - Risk-taking, Integrity, Determination and Empathy - run through every aspect of school life. We work in close partnership with families and our wider community to make sure every child is known, valued and empowered. After 140 years at the heart of Chellaston, we remain proud of our past and ambitious for our future. You are warmly invited to visit us and see the schools in action. Whether you re a prospective parent, a current family, a pupil or a member of our wider community, we hope our website gives you a glimpse of who we are and what we stand for. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to get in touch, we d love to hear from you.
