About Paxcroft School - information for all applicants

We are a friendly and inclusive school situated at the heart of the community here in Trowbridge. We have a skilled team of teaching and pastoral staff who invest in building positive relationships with children and their families.

Working in partnership with parents and carers, we seek to create a positive environment in which to nurture happy, kind and respectful children who are motivated to give their very best in whatever they do. 

We strive for excellence and have the highest expectations and aspirations for all our children.

Our aim is to inspire children to develop inquisitive and imaginative minds and a lifelong positive attitude to learning through a rich and engaging curriculum. The individual talents of every child are recognised and encouraged to flourish.

We also focus on supporting children to develop the life skills of independence and resilience. Ultimately, we aim to develop well-rounded, confident, caring citizens who can play a positive and active role in modern life. This includes children learning the importance of staying safe and keeping healthy, both physically and emotionally.
