About Harewood Junior School

Set near the foot of Robinswood Hill on the outskirts of Gloucester, we are a large three-form entry school with a PAN of 90 in each yeargroup. We work very closely with Harewood Infant School, which shares our site, to provide stimulating, high-quality education for the children of Tuffley and surrounding areas.
We believe that every child has the potential to achieve and we ensure this through our rich and varied curriculum and the structured teaching of key skills particularly in Literacy and Numeracy, matched to the needs of each child.
Working in partnership with parents, our pastoral care and the provision of extra-curricular activities support each child’s personal, social and emotional development as well as their academic progress, so that by the time the children leave us, they are well-prepared to face the new challenges of secondary school and are ready to take their place in our 21st century society, in an ever-changing world.
As a result, Harewood Junior School is a highly successful school and our children do very well. We have been judged to be a consistently “Good” school (latest inspection July 2024); and despite the challenges that life brings for many of them, our children achieve consistently above their local and national counterparts.
We are in our sixteenth year as a co-operative trust foundation school, working very closely with our sister infant school and together. We are also very active members of the Gloucester Schools’ Partnership (GSP) and have been so since its inception. We gain significantly by working collaboratively on Research and Development projects, career-stage CPD programmes and school improvement networks.
