Welcome
William Ransom is a two form entry school with 422 children currently on roll. We have a culturally diverse school population with approximately 19 different cultures represented within school. We are a Values Based School where we encourage all children to develop an understanding of the important qualities in life; kindness, honesty, thoughtfulness and resilience are just some of these values and we hope these help to foster friendships within the pupils which will last a lifetime.
We believe every child has the potential to be whatever they want to be. We have high aspirations and high expectations of them all. A primary school’s job is to prepare pupils for secondary school and as such we want to give our pupils experience in as many different aspects of learning as possible. When they leave us at the end of Year 6 we want them to want to learn more, to be curious and inquisitive. Therefore, it is necessary that we open their minds to so many different possibilities. We strive to provide an excellent education for all our pupils within a caring, stimulating and motivating learning environment.
