Ormiston Primary School

Ormiston Primary School is located in the heart of Ormiston in East Lothian.  We believe the children in our school are the centre of all that we do and should be key contributors to their own education and the effective running of Ormiston Primary School.   We believe that Ormiston Primary School is a vital part of the local community and that families and the local community are key contributors to Ormiston Primary School.

Our vision for the development of the whole child is to ensure that children are acquiring the full range of skills and abilities relevant to growing, living and working in the contemporary world. We aim to ensure that our children will enjoy greater choice and opportunity to help realise their individual talents.

Our school environment provides the experiences, nourishment and emotional security they need to develop confidently.  As they grow we will work together to promote resilience to allow them to weather change, to respond appropriately to new contexts and to form positive relationships with other people.  This self-confidence will help them develop resilience and self-reliance and to become responsible citizens who promote the rights of themselves and others and are effective contributors to their local and global community.  Their internal values and confidence in themselves will enable them to be successful learners with an enthusiasm and motivation for learning, to understand their own learning and to hold high expectations for their own achievement.
