Hambleton Primary School seeks to provide an all round education for children in a bright, stimulating and fun atmosphere. We have the highest expectations of pupil attainment, teacher performance and parental involvement and we encourage everyone to strive for excellence, in order to achieve potential. We seek challenge and embrace change in order to improve.
We seek curriculum themes, which will excite, inspire and motivate learning at all ages. The children are very involved in shaping both the creation and development of themes and we encourage responsibility and independence from a very early age. Whilst we have defined our curriculum drivers as environment, teamwork and resilience, diversity and community.
The progression of Maths and English skills across the curriculum are viewed as vitally important and these are developed at all times. All children are exposed to creative, sporting and cultural opportunities, along with a rich diet of extra-curricular activities and class visits.
We know our children inside out, and use this knowledge to motivate, encourage and care for them throughout their time at our school.
