Boreham Primary School is a one-form entry village school with over 220 children on roll. We pride ourselves on working together with parents and children to ensure a happy learning relationship for all pupils.
At Boreham Primary School our curriculum is driven by the need to prepare our children for lifelong learning and encourages our children to discover, explore and create . Our aim is to ensure that our children become resilient and independent learners who live happy, safe and healthy lives and care for each other and the world around them.
At the heart of our curriculum are our seven school values; friendship, respect, excellence, determination, courage, equality and inspiration. At Boreham Primary School we put the health, safety and welfare of children first, believing that happy children learn and thrive well. We recognise the importance of developing the whole child and preparing them for the wider world.
Security is a priority and the grounds are a very safe place for children to learn and play. The school has very strong community links, a flourishing PTA (Friends at Boreham School, F@bs) and a supportive Governing Body.
