Welcome to Lacewood Primary School.
We are a proud one-form entry school at the heart of the Bolton Upon Dearne community, where every child is nurtured, valued and supported to flourish.

At Lacewood, we strive to provide a warm, positive environment in which our children can thrive academically, socially and emotionally. Our school motto - “Always try your best to be your best” - is at the heart of everything we do. It guides our pupils to approach each day with determination, kindness and a belief in their own potential.

I am privileged to lead an incredibly dedicated and caring staff team who work tirelessly to ensure that our pupils feel happy, safe and ready to learn. Our children are at the centre of all that we do, and being Headteacher to such enthusiastic, curious and capable young learners is a true honour. We are committed to ensuring that every child leaves Lacewood feeling proud of their achievements - whether through academic success or personal milestones that reflect their confidence, creativity and resilience. As an inclusive school, we recognise the importance of developing the whole child, preparing them for happy, fulfilled and successful futures.

We also value the vital role of families and the wider community in supporting our pupils. By working closely with parents, carers and external agencies, we offer support where it is needed and create meaningful opportunities for families to engage in school life. Together, we can build strong foundations for a positive future for every child.

At Lacewood, we believe that every child can succeed and that every child deserves access to a rich, broad and inspiring curriculum. Our curriculum empowers pupils, broadens their horizons and helps them grow into responsible citizens who can stand up for what is right, fair and just. Our children tell us they feel safe, cared for and loved in our school - and that is exactly what every child deserves.

Visitors are always warmly welcomed. We would be delighted to show you around and share what makes Lacewood Primary School such a special place.

If you would like to arrange a visit or learn more, please call us on 01709 887750 — we would love to meet you.
