Our children are at the very centre of all we do at Frances Olive Anderson Church of England School. We have a strong, dedicated team of staff who work tirelessly to provide an exciting and enriched curriculum from which all our pupils learn. Each individual learner is carefully planned for and teaching and learning methods deployed to ensure ALL pupils make progress from their starting points academically and emotionally. Our mission statement underpins our approach at all times: ‘Being Different, Belonging Together,’

We celebrate and share our differences and similarities. In doing so, we realise the valuable contribution which all members of the community can make to Frances Olive Anderson Church of England Primary School. We continually review our practice to take into account the different needs and contributions of pupils, staff, parents and Governors. All of our pupils are guided, cared for and supported in a close partnership with parents and the community; promoting the culture of belonging and working together.

Frances Olive Anderson Church of England Primary School is located in the rural village of Lea which is situated in between Gainsborough and Lincoln. Currently we have 170 pupils on role.

The catchment area includes Lea, Knaith, Knaith Park, Gate Burton, Upton and Kexby, although many children from Gainsborough and the surrounding area choose our school. A free school bus transports children from Upton and Kexby and there is a limited concessionary service from Knaith Park.

Our strong Christian ethos and values provide a good foundation that children can take with them through to adulthood. We believe that it is our duty to equip all of our pupils with the necessary skills and knowledge in order to reach their potential in an ever changing world. Our children have one chance at education. We constantly encourage our children to have high expectations of what they can achieve and provide the support to develop positive attitudes to learning. At all times we consider the support our children and families require for their emotional well-being. We are proud of our pastoral care and the positive impact this has on our learners. Happy learners are lifelong and successful learners.
