On behalf of the Governors, staff and children, I would like to extend a very warm welcome to Mapperley Plains Primary School.

Choosing a primary school is one of the most important decisions you will make for your child. It is essential that you feel confident that the school you choose is the right place for them to learn, grow and thrive, both academically and personally.

Mapperley Plains Primary School is a successful, caring and popular school, rooted in strong relationships and high expectations. Guided by our shared mission to be kind, be curious and be my best, we are committed to providing a safe, inclusive and nurturing environment where every child feels valued, supported and inspired to achieve their best.

We offer a broad and ambitious curriculum, enriched by a wide range of opportunities beyond the classroom, which helps children to develop confidence, resilience and a love of learning. We work closely with families and the wider community, recognising that strong partnerships are key to children’s success and wellbeing.

We hope our website gives you a clear insight into our ethos, values and daily life at Mapperley Plains, and how we support children to become confident, independent and responsible young people, ready for the next stage of their education.

We would be delighted to welcome you to our school community.

Paul Summers
