We take pride in our creative and entrepreneurial curriculum as it not only engages children, but challenges them to develop the skills - as well as the knowledge - befitting of the twenty-first century. At Ebbsfleet Green, we will give all children an exciting, innovative educational excellence to support them to become the best they can be.
