The school serves an area rich in cultural and linguistic diversity. 94% of our children are from Ethnic Minority backgrounds, with 80% of our children at different stages of developing English as an additional language. At Raynham Primary School we have very high expectations of all our students: academically, behaviour and general wellbeing.
We are very serious about children making the best of their educational opportunities but also believe they should have fun and see learning as a lifetime journey. We are committed to preparing our young people for life and the challenges they may meet.

Schools have a duty 'to create and enforce a clear and rigorous expectation to promote the fundamental British values of democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty and mutual respect and tolerance of those with different faiths and beliefs'. The Government set out its definition of British values in the 2011 Prevent Strategy, and these values have been reiterated.
