OUR VISION

Our approach to learning ensures that standards of the National Curriculum are met, but that children's education is extended far beyond this. We offer a highly enriched curriculum and a wide range of experiences to foster children's curiosity about the wider world.

The visual arts, design and technology, music and drama all play different roles in helping our children develop skills for life.

Essential to our creative curriculum is making use of the incredible resources that London provides: from museums, theatres, parks and public buildings, to the wide range of people themselves. The taught curriculum also reflects the diversity and vibrancy of the local community: socially, culturally and ethnically.

We promote a positive, energetic and caring atmosphere in which children feel safe and secure and want to come to school. We are dedicated to equality and opportunity where all children and adults are respected, regardless of race, ethnicity or ability.

For a more detailed outline please take a look at our Curriculum page.

OUR STAFF

The Belham Primary School employs only the very best: individuals who enjoy working with children and bring out the best in them and in their colleagues. Every class has a qualified teacher with excellent subject knowledge, and support staff to provide a personalised education.

We employ specialists alongside our core staff where most appropriate, for example to support special needs, and develop skills in music and sport.

OUR FACILITIES

All classrooms are well-equipped and spaces within the building tailored for specialised activities such as cookery and music. We invest in the latest technology and fill shared spaces with stimulating learning displays and artefacts. Outdoor play spaces include a hardcourt playground and roof-top garden, and we are currently developing the laneway at the front of the school to become a growing and planting area. Healthy meals are offered to all children, prepared daily from fresh ingredients.

WRAP-AROUND CARE

The school offers working parents and carers extended care for children from 7.45am (including breakfast) until 5.55pm. A wide range of age-appropriate clubs are also available before and after school. We accept all childcare vouchers and payments from tax-free childcare accounts.

COMMUNITY LINKS

The school site is at the heart of a creative, passionate and rapidly evolving community. The community should and will influence what is taught and how it is taught. We draw on the incredible talents and experiences of local people, bringing learning to life with the help of artists, writers, scientists and other professionals, and building links with local organisations.
​Our vision is to provide a building which is not only an inspirational educational space, but can also be opened up to the community outside school hours. The central hall, some of our indoor spaces and outdoor areas will be accessible in the evenings and at weekends for local people to use in a variety of ways, from concerts and exhibitions to pop-up dining.
