Welcome!

"Teach a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it" - Proverbs 22:6

Cowick Primary School is a small school situated in the rural East Riding village of East Cowick, near Snaith.

Our school motto is ‘Together we shine as one.’

Embedded in our school ethos are the Christian Values of hope, love and peace.

Our school is a warm, nurturing place for all where children can feel safe, cared for and valued; we are one big family. We treat every child as the amazing individual they are. Our intention is to create learners for life - children who are enthused with a love for learning. We strive to provide inspiring, broad, balanced and creative yet challenging learning experiences in school that in turn will build lasting memories, inner confidence and resilience. Through these experiences, our children will develop the ability to make a positive contribution to our society.

We believe that by working together in strong partnership with our community of children, staff, governors, parents and our local community, we can achieve the goals and aspirations we set ourselves whilst creating memorable moments for all.

'Pupils are happy and feel safe in school' (Ofsted 2023). ‘The depth of supportive relationships is apparent at every level within the school community, echoing the vision that ‘together we shine as one’. The school’s vision of ‘having love at the heart of all we do’ underpins the whole curriculum, enabling pupils to flourish in this rural community’ (SIAMS, 2024).

The school has federated with Pollington-Balne Primary School, which is situated 4.6 miles from Cowick Primary School, sharing an Executive Headteacher and working closely with its sister school for the mutual benefit of all pupils.

Pupils are offered a wide range of opportunities, from sports with our dedicated sports coach, Mr Guest, Creative Outdoor Learning Activities (COLA); and Whole Class Ensemble and Music for Wellbeing delivered by the East Riding of Yorkshire Music Service.

We highly value our parents and carers and see them as equal partners in their child’s education.

We hope that we have excited your curiosity to see our school and welcome visits from prospective parents/carers.
