Nestled in a beautiful rural setting, our school is rich with charm and community spirit. With approximately 200 children on roll, organised into seven spacious classes, we pride ourselves on maintaining a close-knit, welcoming atmosphere. Here at Brinscall St John’s, our overall aim is to provide a safe, caring, and stimulating environment in which our children can learn and engage with a broad, balanced, and exciting curriculum that ignites their curiosity and passion for knowledge.
Our school is alive with activity! It's a busy but friendly place, bustling with laughter, learning, and a smattering of creativity in every corner. We understand that the best way to get to know our school is by diving in, and this website serves as a lovely introduction to the wonderful experiences we offer. You’ll find up-to-date information for parents, children, and the wider community, giving you a taster of what makes our school so special.
At Brinscall St John’s, our vision extends beyond academic excellence. We intend for our children to acquire the skills and knowledge necessary to grow into confident, compassionate adults who are not only committed to their own development but also conscientious of their responsibilities to others. We aim to nurture independent thinkers who can chart their own paths to well-being and happiness, whilst fostering a caring attitude towards those around them.
We firmly believe that your child’s education is a partnership. Home, school, churches, and local communities all play a vital role in this collaborative effort. By working together, we can instil a love of learning that resonates within an atmosphere of trust where each individual is valued. Our close links with local churches, including St Paul’s, St Barnabas, Hillside Methodist, and the Chorley Methodist Circuit, enrich our school life significantly. Their clergy and many parishioners frequently visit our school, further enhancing our community connections.
At Brinscall St John’s, we strive to provide the highest quality of education for all our children within a caring, positive atmosphere grounded firmly in Christian values. Every effort is made to ensure that St John’s is a friendly and thriving place, and we invite you to share in its vibrant life. From engaging lesson plans to extracurricular activities that enrich our children’s experiences, there's always something exciting happening here.
