Welcome to Stanwix School

It is a great pleasure to welcome you to Stanwix School and to introduce our thriving, forward-looking community under the leadership of our new Headteacher, Mr Darren Glynn, and Deputy Headteacher, Mrs Vicky Jenner.

We are extremely proud of what we achieve here, and proud too of the spirit in which we achieve it — together.

Stanwix is a place where every individual matters. From their very first steps into Reception, our children are recognised for who they are, encouraged to take pride in their growth, and supported to reach their full potential. Whether it’s a moment of learning, a moment of kindness, or a moment of discovery, we believe every day should inspire confidence, character, and a love of learning.

Our school is built on strong relationships and shared values. We set high expectations and create a warm, purposeful environment where respect, safety, and wellbeing are central to success. Our staff are dedicated to helping children not just succeed academically but grow into thoughtful, resilient learners who understand themselves and their world.

Learning at Stanwix is ambitious and meaningful. Our carefully planned curriculum builds essential knowledge and skills over time while offering rich, real-world experiences that spark curiosity and creativity. From problem-solving and teamwork to outdoor learning and creative exploration, we believe in learning that’s lively, joyful, and rooted in relevance.

We also pride ourselves on offering a vibrant range of extracurricular opportunities — from sport and music to creative arts and wider enrichment. These experiences add colour and depth to school life, encouraging children to discover new passions and develop their talents beyond the classroom.

Our strong historical roots and close community ties further enrich our children’s experience, helping them develop a deep sense of place, belonging, and pride in their school.

Whether you’re a new visitor, a prospective parent, or a long-standing friend of the school, we invite you to come and see what makes Stanwix so special. We look forward to welcoming you and to building a lifelong learning partnership — one where we grow and thrive together.
