Welcome to Nassington School
My name is Ed Carlyle and I am delighted to be the Executive Headteacher of Nassington School. I warmly welcome you to our school website, which I hope will give you just a flavour of some of the amazing things we do at this wonderful school.
Nassington School is dedicated to providing children with the best available education in a safe and fun environment. We also teach the children social and wellbeing skills which set them up for the wider world as they move on from us to higher education.
Our mission statement is ‘Be Outstanding.’ This applies to everything we do, from the classroom to the playground, from academic accomplishments to the peer to peer interaction that build up the children’s social engagement. Nassington School is dedicated to providing children with the best available education in a safe and fun environment. We also teach the children social and wellbeing skills which set them up for the wider world as they move on from us to higher education. Every child has the potential to be outstanding and we believe it is our job to nurture this potential and watch it grow in every activity that takes place in the school and during extra-curricular opportunities. We encourage imagination, creativity and practical achievements as much as the core assessment criteria. Our aim is that every child who leaves our school will be more confident, social and ready to take the next step towards the rest of their lives.
Our values are:
- Nurture (We care)
- Commitment (We keep going and are resilient)
- Pride (We celebrate success)
- Self-confidence (We know we can and we do)
Mr Ed Carlyle
Executive Headteacher

If you fancy sharing a 2 minute video clip about resilience with your children or young people, check this out -
I like what Beano says ‘Everyone sees my mischief, no one sees my emotions.’ Does that sound familiar? We may talk about ‘children’s behaviour’ and that it isn’t acceptable – maybe it feels a bit tricky working with a child’s emotions, this video might help with those conversations.Another recommended site with resources about Mental Health is Free practical mental health resources | Charlie Waller Trust.
We hope you find these resources useful! Please come and talk to your child's class teacher if you have any questions or concerns!
