50 Years Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Primary School, Rottingdean, Brighton – 1969-2019
We are very pleased to share with you our latest Ofsted Report (November 2018). Here is the link: Ofsted Report 2018
School is open as usual today!
Our pupils say:
‘It’s the best school in the whole wide world’.
If you are new to the area and looking for a place for your child, please do not hesitate to contact the office. We currently have spaces in Reception and some other year groups. Although we are a Catholic school we welcome members of all faiths and none into our community.
Magic Pavilion Launch Day
We worked with Pentagon Play on this project. They design and install outdoor learning environments for schools and nurseries. You can visit their website here: www.pentagonplay.co.uk
Read more about the whole project and the special launch day here.
“In the recent development of the outdoor classroom you have involved the pupil ‘Eco Council’ in making key decisions about the design of the area. Pupils feel respected, valued and listened to as a result of this approach to include them in the life of the school.” (Ofsted 2018)

The Classroom
We continually work to maximise opportunities for our children to reach their full potential by developing our inside and outside learning environments. Recently we have refurbished all our Junior classrooms and redeveloped the library area to be inviting and stimulating places to learn. In partnership with governors and the PTA, the school has resurfaced all play and recreational areas, as well as developed a new and engaging wildlife area in the school grounds.
Teaching children English and Maths is important, but we also understand that working together is a big part of the skills needed for life after education. At Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Primary School we actively encourage teamwork and the helping of others through the promotion of a Growth Mindset, Playground Buddies and collaborative learning.

Our purpose is to live, love and learn as a school community in partnership with home, parishes and the wider world. We help and nourish the children’s mental and physical development with:
- After school activities (click for more information)
- The Deans Sports Partnership (click for more information)
- School Captains
- Residential Trips in Yrs 5 & 6
The children learn how to work as a team and individually during their Physical Education, providing necessary skills for post-education life.
