Cedarwood Primary School

A Warm Welcome From The Headteacher

It is my great pleasure to welcome you to our school website. Cedarwood Primary is a friendly school situated in the heart of the Kesgrave community. Our staff, pupils, parents and governors are committed to achieving the highest possible standards. At Cedarwood, we value every child and aim to achieve Excellence and Enjoyment for All. Children’s happiness and well-being is paramount and we seek to develop confident, creative individuals who share a passion for learning.

Our curriculum is carefully planned to bring the subjects of the National Curriculum to life so that pupils develop their knowledge and skills in a way that inspires their curiosity and equips them for their futures. The success of the school can be seen in our well-rounded, happy and confident learners, who move onto high school well-prepared for the next stage in their lives.

I am very proud of our school and hope this website will offer an insight into life at Cedarwood.
