A warm welcome from our
Head of School
At Shorne Primary School, we hold our Christian Values of Resilience, Community, and Respect in the highest regard. We believe in ensuring that each and every member of the school community feels valued, listened to, nurtured and encouraged to see the positive impact they can have on the world. Our children are at the heart of everything we do and we strongly believe in offering each child every opportunity to develop into kind, confident, and compassionate members of society.
Aletheia Academies Trust
Shorne Church of England Primary School joined as a founding member of Aletheia Academies Trust in 2015.
Aletheia is committed to sustaining high-quality schools, and supporting schools in need of specific improvement in some of the more challenging wards in Kent. Our focus is to provide school improvement services that draw on the wealth of practice from across our trust, broaden the expertise available to schools through flexible working arrangements and increase our capacity to quickly respond to the needs of individual schools. Pedagogical excellence is at the heart of all we do with a sustained focus on collaborative and mastery learning.
