Welcome to Rushey Green Primary School. We are proud to be a Rights Respecting Gold Award School, serving our children and the local community.
I would like to take the opportunity to extend a warm welcome to you and your children as Interim Headteacher of Rushey Green Primary School - a place where staff and children feel safe, happy, challenged and supported to achieve their full potential. Rushey Green is a three-form entry primary school located in the heart of Catford.
We are committed to providing a friendly, caring, supportive environment where children are valued and given the self belief to be their very best. I am proud to lead a team who are fully committed to children's physical and emotional wellbeing whilst aspiring for all to do their best.
We believe in building strong partnerships - the school is well supported by our governors and parents. We have an active RGSA and have strong links with other local primary schools in the area.
