Welcome

We are delighted to welcome you to Bar Hill Community Primary School. Bar Hill is a school which truly values children as individuals. We have high expectations for all children in our care. We aim to provide a safe, happy and stimulating environment for all children and we are committed to providing the best education for them.

During our last OFSTED inspection (November 2008) a team of inspectors described how good our school was:

‘Bar Hill Community is a good school. It provides a secure and encouraging environment that enables its pupils to enjoy their learning and to achieve well, both academically and in their personal development. The school’s successful work to promote community cohesion is a distinctive feature. Through imaginative projects, both locally and through schools in other countries, pupils contribute much to their own and the local community and they acquire a wider global dimension to their learning. The overwhelming majority of parents are very pleased with their children’s education.’

Our Headteacher believes in developing a positive relationship between home and school. The staff and headteacher will endeavour to ensure that you are fully involved and informed about your child’s progress and development.

At our school, children come first. There will be many decisions to be made regarding your child’s education during his/her years at Bar Hill. We hope that you will respect our decisions, which we make as a result of the considerable expertise residing within the collective professional experience of our teachers.

If you are considering sending your child to our school please make an appointment to visit us. The choice of school for your child is probably one of the most important decisions you have to make. Your child’s primary school years are a life changing experience and it is crucial that they are happy and enable every child to reach their full potential.
