Pilgrims' Way Primary School and Nursery

Pilgrims' Way Primary School and Nursery, located in Canterbury, Kent, is a community school that caters to mixed-gender students and has a capacity of 315. Since joining the Veritas Multi Academy Trust in May 2018, the school has been recognised by OFSTED as a good school, particularly noted for its outstanding Early Years provision. The school is committed to providing an ambitious and inclusive curriculum that fosters a love for learning and supports the development of confident, well-rounded individuals.

The school’s ethos is built around core values of respect, resilience, aspiration, positivity, and success, which guide interactions within the school community. Pilgrims' Way promotes independence through purposeful learning experiences, and the curriculum is enriched by a Forest School programme that operates throughout the year. This approach aims to create a supportive environment where students can thrive academically and socially.

Under the leadership of Headteacher Emma Campbell, the school prioritises a culture of inclusion and positivity, ensuring that both students and families feel valued and supported in their educational journey. Parents are encouraged to engage with the school and can arrange visits to learn more about the community and educational offerings.
