On behalf of the children, staff and governors I am delighted to welcome you to Hillbourne Primary School.

I am very proud to be the headteacher and work alongside all stakeholders to ensure that every child has every opportunity.

The ethos of the school is based on our motto ‘every child, every opportunity’. We believe in providing all pupils will a broad and balanced curriculum that builds from the first moment they step through the door.

We want every individual who attends our school to strive and be the best that they can be. 

It is our aim and belief that all children will thrive with our vison and core values, ; Be Ready, Be Responsible, Be Safe.'  All three core values are understood by all, demonstrated by all and driven by all.

We ensure that personal development is at the heart of what we teach – we want our children to grow and flourish into active, responsible citizens.

Our aim is to help the children succeed by reaching their potential in every aspect of school life; academic, social, personal, physical and emotional.  

Children, families, staff and governors work in close partnership to create enriching learning opportunities in all areas of the curriculum. Our aim is to encourage children to develop the skills they need for later life, with a very strong focus on pupils embedding learning from the breadth of the curriculum into their long-term memory. 

Our extra-curricular activities compliment the core curriculum and provide opportunities for pupils in wider enrichment activities, such as experiences, clubs and visits, which ensures each and every pupil leaves us at the end of Year 6 ready to relish all future opportunities and challenges.

We are all very proud to be part of the Hillbourne community and always welcome visitors to our school, so you can see for yourselves our learning in action and our amazing children.
