Barton Church of England Primary School
Barton Church of England Primary School is in the village of Barton, between the towns of Richmond and Darlington. Two miles from the A1, four miles from a mainline station, the village is within commuting distance of Newcastle and Leeds and a few miles away from the Yorkshire Dales National Park.
Although the school has been at the heart of the community for over 150 years and has strong links with the local church, we also see ourselves very much as a school of the 21st century. We have links with many overseas schools including China and New Zealand, all of which are maintained and extended through our new Barton BLOG.
Everyone at Barton CE Primary School works towards ensuring that all children are happy in school, that they feel valued as members of their class and are comfortable in their environment. We recognise that when these conditions are satisfied, children are able to learn.
We pride ourselves on providing each child with personalised learning within small teaching groups and the children are given extensive opportunities to explore what interests them.
Children, staff, parents and governors developed our six words which we feel encapsulate our aims and vision for all who come here.

It is important that parents and staff work closely together in an atmosphere of mutual trust for your child's benefit. Our school has an open door policy and a friendly family atmosphere.
