Strive, Achieve, Excel; Believe in a Limitless Future.
Lainesmead Primary School and Nursery is proud to be part of the national Challenge Partners programme through the Royal Wotton Bassett Hub. This collaboration allows us to continually challenge ourselves and ensure our school improvement plans are top-notch, ultimately providing the best outcomes for our children.
Challenge Partners is a practitioner-led national network that enhances school performance through peer-to-peer challenge and knowledge sharing. Each year, our school undergoes a Quality Assurance (QA) Review conducted by senior leaders from other schools. This review focuses on teaching and learning, fostering deep conversations about the quality of education we provide.

Being part of Challenge Partners allows us to share best practices, learn from others, and reflect on our school improvement strategies. The professional dialogue and learning that occur during these reviews are invaluable, demonstrating our commitment to collaboration and continuous improvement.
