Welcome to Inglehurst Junior School an incredible junior school situated on the border of New Parks and Newfoundpool in Leicester City. We have approximately 320 children from a wide range of cultural, spiritual and economic backgrounds. We truly are very proud of our school and all the amazing things we do. IJS is a school and so much more.
We strive to recognise and develop the whole child , to allow them to be the best me they can be and to offer a helping hand when things get difficult. We believe that knowing our children and our community is key to our success. Through building good relationships, listening and caring we have created a scaffold that supports our learning environment.
Barriers of deprivation and personal challenge are overcome and we celebrate high expectations and outcomes year after year. We believe all our children can achieve anything and they do!
