Welcome to Ingleton Primary School

Nestled between the breath-taking Yorkshire Dales National Park and the stunning Lake District, Ingleton Primary School is a place where learning comes to life. We are more than just a school; we are a community that cares deeply about nurturing each child’s unique potential. Our vision centres around outdoor learning, allowing our students to connect with nature in meaningful ways, fostering an environment where they can thrive academically and personally.

At Ingleton Primary School, we are committed to creating a joyful and respectful learning environment. We believe in the power of curiosity and creativity encouraging our pupils to embrace challenges with resilience and confidence. Every child is valued as an individual, and we tailor our approach to meet their distinct needs.

Our dedicated team are passionate about making learning enjoyable and rewarding. They are committed to instilling a love for learning that will inspire our pupils to become lifelong learners, equipped with the essential life skills needed for future success.

At Ingleton our values permeate all areas of school life and are reflected by the school’s motto:

“The school motto at Ingleton Primary School is ‘tall oaks from little acorns grow’. The
high-quality pastoral care, the school’s deep commitment to pupils’ personal development
and the high expectations for achievement mean that pupils do become the ‘tall oaks’ the
school intends them to be.” – Ofsted May 2025

LUNCH MENU

Children are encouraged to take a school meal at lunch time as they help provide part of a healthy balanced diet and encourage social eating habits.  Our meals are excellent value and are prepared using locally sourced fresh ingredients on a daily basis by our School Cook and an Assistant.

A menu is circulated at the beginning of each term showing the meal choices available to your child for each day of that term.  At the start of each school day a dinner register will be taken by the class teacher and children choose which meal they would like e.g. main meal option or the second or third option.
