Welcome to Tolworth School. Thank you for taking the time to get to know us a little better. Tolworth School is a federation that formally links Tolworth Infant and Nursery School with Tolworth Junior School. The schools are attached in one building and work as one school, with one Headteacher and one Governing Body.
Our Nursery provides the equivalent of 52 part-time places for 3-4 year olds with some of these places allocated as full 30 hour places. We also have a small number of 2 year old places. Reception and Years One to Six each have three classes of up to 30 children.
The school is tucked safely behind Tolworth Broadway, away from the noise and traffic of the main road, with plenty of green space available to us for play and learning. We have a close relationship with Tolworth Children's Centre, which shares our site. We are a positive and vibrant community school where happy children, successful learners is our motto.
We work hard to nurture and support every child so that they can reach their full potential, while enjoying their learning journey.
In the school’s own words, from the school website.
