HEADTEACHER'S WELCOME Welcome to Wickham Church of England Primary School of Wickham Church of England Primary School; a window on life and learning at our school. Wickham Primary School is a very special place, with its own unique sense of community and I am very proud to be the headteacher.
Each child is valued as an individual and their talents and strengths are recognised, celebrated and developed further. Learning opportunities here are rich and exciting with children given every opportunity to be the best that they can be.
Wickham is a warm, happy and caring school community built on our core Christian values of Love, Courage and Respect and our children are rightfully proud of their school. Our Ofsted inspection in February 2022 judged that we continue to be a good school and our SIAMS Inspection in July 2023 also graded the school as good.
We also have our own pre-school ( wickham-preschool.co.uk ) on site with provision for 2, 3 and 4 year olds and offer our own onsite wraparound care provision, before and after school, from 7.30am until 6.00pm.
