We are very proud of our “School of Sanctuary” status, awarded in 2021. This recognition highlights how our school continues to be a welcoming and supportive place for children and families from all backgrounds, cultures, and walks of life.

At Bitterne Manor Primary School, we believe it is essential for children to learn how to live, learn, and grow alongside people from different experiences and traditions. This belief is reflected in our school values, where we promote kindness, understanding, and mutual respect among everyone in our community.

As a School of Sanctuary, we help our pupils and staff to appreciate diversity, show empathy, and take responsibility for making sure everyone feels safe, included, and valued within our school. We are proud to be a place where everyone belongs.
