Welcome
Dear Parents,
Welcome to our website and thank you for taking the time to visit. The pages on this website are intended to help you find out more about the life and work of Braniel Primary School.
At Braniel, we aim to provide a caring environment for your child and a wide range of learning opportunities to help all our pupils grow and develop into independent, responsible people.
This can only be achieved by close co-operation between school and home, and many opportunities exist for parents to share in their child’s education.
The staff at Braniel Primary School will always be available to talk to you about any aspect of your child’s wellbeing or development and we welcome the positive interest from parents.
No website can ever convey the real atmosphere of a school, so I would like to invite you to watch our video or alternatively, you can make an appointment to view the school in person.
We hope that you will share with us in making these years a very successful period in your child’s life.
Yours sincerely
Mr C.Elliott (Acting-Principal)

Mission Statement
We aim to secure an environment in which pupils can learn, and achieve their full potential, through effective teaching and learning. The considerations and needs of the child is paramount within the school community and we are committed to ensuring a safe, harmonious environment in which the child is supported physically, emotionally, spiritually, intellectually and socially. Our aim is to ensure that parents, pupils, teachers and support staff have ownership and responsibility for the positive ethos created within our environment, whilst recognising that they have a vital role to play in maintaining it. We aim to establish an environment where the worth and value of each child is respected, children learn mutual self-respect, have a sense of belonging, and where children are equipped for today and empowered for tomorrow.
