Welcome to Gillibrand Primary School
Thank you for visiting our website!
Gillibrand is a unique and inclusive school that prides itself on providing a home-from-home nurturing environment. We create a culture where children learn to respect difference and diversity, not just through our personalised curriculum, but through the daily life of our school.
We are committed to giving every child the very best opportunities, regardless of their background, race, gender, disability, or beliefs.
A Caring and Nurturing Environment
We are a happy and supportive school, where staff work together to ensure the best outcomes for all our families. Our passion lies in building a positive school culture, where our vision and values are at the heart of everything we do.
Our pupils are encouraged to become positive role models, developing the skills, attitudes, and behaviours they need to succeed well beyond their primary education.
Our Vision: We Nurture Children’s Dreams
At Gillibrand, we don’t just encourage our children to have dreams—we equip them with the knowledge, skills, and values to achieve them.
Our vision-driven culture helps pupils grow into confident individuals and responsible citizens, ready to make a positive contribution to the world around them.
Community at Our Heart
As a community school, our work is deeply rooted in the needs and strengths of our local area. We have designed a bespoke, exciting, and engaging curriculum — the ASPIRATION Curriculum — tailored to our children and our Chorley community.
This curriculum is continuously reviewed to ensure that all pupils thrive, flourish, and reach their full potential — academically, socially, and emotionally.
Come and See for Yourself!
We hope our website gives you a sense of what makes Gillibrand special, and provides helpful information for both current and prospective families.
To truly experience our school’s warmth and values, we warmly invite you to come and visit us. We’d be delighted to show you around and introduce you to our Gillibrand family.
On behalf of the pupils, staff, parents, and governors — thank you for taking the time to celebrate our school community and everything we offer.
Mrs Hannah Clark
