Warden Hill is a thriving primary school in the south of Cheltenham. All members of our school are committed to providing the very best education possible for our children. We believe that children learn best when they feel valued and this is evident throughout our school- whether in the classrooms, inter-house events or outside in our Forest School area. We are very much a team at Warden Hill and are dedicated to working with all our stakeholders; children, parents, governors and our wider community.

Whilst we are very proud of our children’s academic achievements, we are very passionate about developing the whole child and enabling them to find their own niche – whether this lies in the classroom in a particular subject, on the games field or on the stage – each of our children are individuals and we aim to support them fully. We work hard to ensure that all our children are successful at their own level and that their school experiences equip them well for their onward journey.
