Welcome to Mawnan Church of England VA Primary School

A place to belong, a place to flourish and a place to let your light shine.

It is a real pleasure to welcome you to Mawnan Church of England VA Primary School, a small, happy and ambitious school at the heart of our wonderful Cornish community.

At Mawnan, we believe that every child is unique, with their own God-given gifts, talents and potential. Our Christian vision, “Using our God-given gifts to let our light shine,” is at the heart of everything we do. It inspires us to create a school where everyone feels they belong, where every child is encouraged to aim high and where learning is filled with curiosity, joy and opportunity.

We are incredibly proud of our school. Our children are kind, enthusiastic and full of character, our staff are dedicated and passionate, and our families and wider community play a very special part in school life. Together, we have created a warm, welcoming and nurturing environment where relationships matter, individuality is celebrated and everyone is encouraged to flourish.

We have high aspirations for every child and are committed to providing an exceptional education. Through an ambitious and engaging curriculum, rich experiences and a strong sense of care and belonging, we want our children to develop the knowledge, confidence, resilience and character they need to thrive, both now and in the future. We believe that education is about so much more than academic achievement; it is about discovering talents, developing friendships, embracing challenges and becoming thoughtful, compassionate young people who can make a positive difference in the world.

Our beautiful Cornish surroundings provide a wonderful backdrop for learning, and we make the most of the opportunities offered by our local environment and community. Although we are a small school, we have big ambitions and are always looking for new ways to enrich the experiences of our children.

Above all, Mawnan is a school where children are known, valued and cared for as individuals. We want every child to leave us not only well prepared for the next stage of their education, but also with happy memories, a love of learning and the confidence to let their light shine wherever life takes them.

I hope our website gives you a sense of what makes Mawnan such a special place. Whether you are already part of our school family, are considering joining us or are simply finding out more, you are very warmly welcome.

There is nothing quite like seeing our school in action, so please do come and visit. We would be delighted to show you around.
