Dear All
I want to extend a heartfelt welcome back to the new academic year—and a huge thank you for such a positive and energising start!
It’s been a joy to spend time at the school this week, especially standing on the gate alongside Mrs Lowndes, where I’ve seen first-hand the warmth, enthusiasm, and positivity that radiates from our pupils each morning. Their attitudes have been exceptional—full of energy, curiosity, and kindness. It’s clear that Baldwins Gate is a place where children feel safe, inspired, and ready to learn.
To our staff: thank you for the care, professionalism, and passion you bring to your work. You’ve set the tone for a brilliant year ahead, and it’s already showing in the atmosphere across the school.
To our parents and carers: your support and partnership are invaluable. The sense of community at Baldwins Gate is strong, and it’s built on the trust and collaboration between home and school.
And to our governors: thank you for your continued commitment. The Governing Board is primed to support and challenge the school in equal measure this year. Each governor has taken on a specific area of focus in their voluntary role, ensuring that our strategic oversight is purposeful, informed, and aligned with the school’s ambitions.

Together, we are shaping a positive year. I’m excited for what lies ahead and proud to be part of this journey with you.
Warmest wishes.
Phil Harrison
Chair of Governors
