Sir Robert Hitcham CEVAP School and Nursery is a voluntary aided primary school catering for children between the ages of 3 and 11. We have a strong Christian ethos and take pride in living our values and, as such, welcome children from families of all faiths and none.
We are a friendly one-form entry school, situated in the village of Debenham in the heart of Suffolk. As well as Debenham, our school also serves the nearby villages of Kenton, Winston, Pettaugh, Aspall and part of Rishangles. We have a Nursery class with 20 places and seven single-aged group classes for children between 4-11. Our school site also hosts the Roundabout Pre-school and the Debenham Village Library.
Our school is set in large grounds, which includes a Forest Schools area and a purpose built Early Years outdoor learning space. We maximise our use of this wonderful space, promoting PE and an active lifestyle, with real success. Indoors, our shared learning areas are used for group work, practical learning and to provide for the specific needs of groups or individuals. To help children develop their social and emotional skills, our ELSA-trained teaching assistant works with children in a designated room called ‘The Space’.
