I am very proud to be the headteacher of Whitstone Primary School with its beautiful surroundings of the North Cornish countryside and coast. We believe that our school is an inspiring and creative place, where we all learn, grow and achieve together.
Leaders have high expectations of every pupil at Whitstone Primary School. They make sure that pupils learn an ambitious curriculum. Pupils understand the school's 'Grow' values well. They explain how the curriculum helps them to be reflective, curious, motivated and part of a community.
