It is my privilege to extend a very warm welcome to Elworth Hall Primary School. We aspire for every child to have access to the highest quality education, within a nurturing and caring environment.
We are a school within The Chancery Multi Academy Trust.
We pride ourselves on our warm, caring and happy atmosphere and have high aspirations for every child. We are child-centred and inclusive in all that we do for our children. We recognise that all children have unique qualities and it is our role as educators to bring out those qualities during their time with us at Elworth Hall.
Our environment is engaging and inspiring and a place where children feel safe to learn and make mistakes. Our aim is to encourage children from Foundation through to Year 6 to actively shape their minds, attitudes and habits through a framework of metacognitive strategies that enable them to live and breathe our vision.
We have a rich variety of extra-curricular and enrichment activities on offer throughout the year. There is something for everyone and we ask the children for their interests and incorporate some of their ideas for clubs as well.
Our school is at the heart of our community. We have well-established links with our local Rotary Clubs through our Rotakids project. Elworth Hall is a single form entry primary school with children taught in seven single-aged classes. The school is open 38 weeks term time and our popular wrap around provision and holiday club offers parents and carers further childcare. The school day runs from 8:40am - 3:15pm, which equates to 32.5 hours per week, for all students attending Elworth Hall Primary School. Children can be on - site from 7:30am (Breakfast Club) until 6:00pm (After School Club) daily. If you have any further questions about our school, please do not hesitate to get in touch.
