Welcome to our website and thank you for taking the time to find out more about our school... Heber Primary School is a beautiful Victorian building in the heart of East Dulwich. Situated in a quiet residential road, we are walking distance to a range of open green spaces that we use on a regular basis.
We are also very close to transport links, enabling us to utilise everything that London has to offer. We are a happy, creative and high performing school where all children belong and all achieve. Visitors always comment on the calm, purposeful atmosphere at Heber.
Our children are eager to learn and their behaviour and attitudes clearly reflect our three key values of thoughtfulness, resilience and responsibility. Sitting alongside our commitment to pupil welfare is a constant and relentless focus on the progress of each and every child in the school. We consider ourselves a family.
We foster strong relationships between pupils and staff and our children create long-lasting relationships with their peers.
In the school’s own words, from the school website.
