Welcome to Barlows Primary School    

Welcome to Barlows Primary School, a vibrant two-form entry maintained primary school located in the heart of Fazakerley, within the dynamic city of Liverpool. For many years, we have proudly served as a cornerstone of the local community, deeply embedded in the social fabric of our area. Our commitment to placing the best interests of our pupils at the forefront of our daily operations is unwavering.

At Barlows, we are dedicated to delivering high-quality learning within an inclusive and nurturing environment that accommodates the needs of all our pupils. We believe that a well-rounded education is paramount to nurturing individuals who can not only thrive in their subsequent stages of education but also contribute positively to society. Our holistic approach ensures that each child is recognised as a unique learner, deserving of tailored support to cultivate their individual strengths and abilities.

This year, in a spirit of unity and ambition, we proudly launched our new school motto: “Dream, Achieve – Believe you can!” This motto encapsulates our core values and aspirations for every pupil who walks through our doors. We ingrained in our ethos the values of kindness, resilience, determination, respect, excellence, citizenship and teamwork. These principles not only guide our educational practices but also influence our interactions and relationships within the school community.

As an institution, we take great pride in what we have achieved collectively at Barlows. The collaboration between staff, students, parents, and the wider community has culminated in a supportive and thriving educational environment. We are committed to ensuring that our school continues to build upon its successes, always striving for improvements that elevate the educational and personal journey of each child.

We recognise that the educational landscape is continually evolving, which is why we remain steadfast in our commitment to providing the best possible education and experiences for our children. Our curriculum is ambitious, designed to challenge and inspire. We believe in scaffolding learning to support all pupils, empowering them to fulfil their potential. Our dedicated staff work tirelessly to ensure that every child is equipped with the necessary skills and knowledge to face future challenges with confidence.

We pride ourselves on fostering an inclusive culture of high expectations, wherein both academic and personal development are celebrated. Our pupils are encouraged to take risks in their learning, exploring new ideas and concepts while feeling safe and supported. This nurturing environment plays a crucial role in encouraging their innate curiosity and enthusiasm for learning.

Our commitment to excellence remains at the forefront of all that we do at Barlows Primary School. As we move forward, we invite you to join us on this journey of growth and discovery. Together, we can ensure that our children not only dream but also achieve and believe in themselves.

We continue to look forward to a bright future filled with opportunities and achievements for every member of our school community.
