Welcome to Henham and Ugley Primary and Nursery School I am proud to be the Headteacher of Henham and Ugley Primary and Nursery School, a one year intake school nestled in the heart of our beautiful countryside community of Henham, located between Bishop's Stortford and Saffron Walden.
At Henham, we offer a thoughtfully planned and ambitious curriculum that challenges all our pupils and prepares them for life beyond primary school. Our vision is clear: we want every child to leave our nurturing environment as well-rounded individuals, academically confident, morally grounded, and socially equipped to thrive as responsible citizens.
Our core values: healthy mind and body, individuality, technology, curiosity, and care for our local environment are woven into everything we do. These values guide our teaching, shape our culture, and inspire our children to grow into their best selves.
In the school’s own words, from the school website.
