Belonging, Kindness, Curiosity, Confidence, and Ambition
We are a one-form entry school located in the heart of Chiswick, London, and we are proud to provide a creative and dynamic environment where all children thrive and are well prepared for their future. At the forefront of our school is a sense of belonging, which is essential for our children to feel secure, trust, and embrace change and challenge. This sense of belonging allows our children to develop positive relationships and self-worth, enabling them to learn and grow in a supportive and nurturing environment.
