On behalf of Applecroft School, I would like to extend a warm welcome to our website. It is difficult to summarise a school in a few lines, however I believe what makes Applecroft special is the dedication and genuine care, kindness and supportiveness that resonates throughout the school from everyone and for everyone. We focus on nurturing the ‘whole child’ and recognise that if a child feels safe, secure and happy they will be able to fulfil their potential and will relish any challenge that comes their way. Our mission statement: 'Nurturing Potential, Inspiring Minds, Changing Lives' underpins all we do.

We value everyone’s individuality and recognise the collective strength this provides our community. We are proud of our 'Applecroft Family' and have high expectations of each other. We know that what we do here is important; children only get one childhood and we recognise our part in providing all children with the safety, security and care they deserve whilst ensuring they create life long memories that they will cherish forever. I hope you get an insight into our wonderful school and find all the information you need.

Mrs Lisa Withe, Headteacher
