Welcome to Lostwithiel Primary School
A very warm welcome to Lostwithiel Primary School.
We are proud to be a school where children are happy, confident and inspired to learn. At the heart of everything we do is a commitment to helping every child thrive academically, socially and emotionally within a caring and supportive community. Our children arrive each day eager to learn, explore and contribute, creating a positive atmosphere where kindness, respect and ambition flourish.
We believe that childhood should be filled with curiosity, adventure and memorable experiences. Our rich curriculum encourages children to think deeply, communicate confidently and develop a lifelong love of learning. Alongside strong foundations in reading, writing and mathematics, we provide a wide range of opportunities that help children discover their talents, interests and passions.
As a school nestled in the beautiful Cornish countryside, we place great value on outdoor learning and exploration. From our engaging outdoor spaces to opportunities to learn beyond the classroom, we encourage children to develop a love of the natural world, build independence and gain confidence through real-life experiences. We want every child to appreciate the outdoors, understand their role within their community and feel inspired by the environment around them.
Partnership with parents is central to our success. We work closely with families to ensure that every child feels supported, valued and encouraged to achieve their very best. Together, we create a welcoming school community where children feel safe, develop strong friendships and grow into thoughtful, responsible young people.
Whether you are already part of our school family or considering Lostwithiel for your child, we hope our website gives you a glimpse of the warmth, ambition and sense of belonging that make our school such a special place.
We look forward to welcoming you to Lostwithiel Primary School.

We are incredibly proud to have been recognised with a National School Attendance Award, placing Lostwithiel School in the top 10% of similar primary schools in England for attendance. This achievement reflects the hard work of our pupils, families, and staff, who understand that every day in school matters. Regular attendance helps children build confidence, develop strong relationships, and make the most of every learning opportunity. We are also delighted that our recent Ofsted inspection recognised our work in Attendance and Behaviour as Exceptional, highlighting the positive culture, high expectations, and strong support that underpin everything we do. As a proud RISE Attendance and Behaviour Hub School, we are committed not only to securing excellent outcomes for our own pupils but also to supporting other schools in developing effective approaches to attendance and behaviour. A huge thank you to our whole school community for helping to make this possible. Together, we are ensuring every child has the opportunity to thrive. 🌟 #LostwithielSchool #AttendanceMatters #ExceptionalAttendance #ExceptionalBehaviour #Ofsted #RISEHub #ProudToBeLostwithiel #EveryDayCounts #TeamLostwithielSchool
