Willaston School

Behaviour values: fair, respect, safe. This is how we do it here.

Willaston Primary School is located in the City of Douglas in the Isle of Man. Willaston School forms the beating heart of the Willaston Community, providing education for children from the ages of 4 to 11, Reception to Year 6.

At Willaston School we believe that in order to raise aspirations and expectations we should expect the best from ourselves and others; have high standards in behaviour, appearance, presentation and environment; challenge children and take them to the edge of their capabilities, and in doing so encourage children to challenge themselves; enable children to learn independently, applying the skills that they have learned; be brave enough and informed enough to take considered risks; be engaged enough to question; inform parents and carers about the learning that is taking place; and provide opportunities for parents to further their own learning.

We offer you a warm welcome to the Willaston School Family and look forward to meeting you and your children as they embark upon their exciting journey with us.

Maxim Kelly, Executive Headteacher
