About Us Hewens Primary is part of the family of schools sponsored by The Rosedale Hewens Academy Trust. The Trust has a proven track record of success and is responsible for a dramatic upturn in academic achievement locally.
In 2018 Hewens Primary school was in the top 4% of schools in the country for its phonics results, and number 1 in Hillingdon for pupil progress in writing at Key Stage Two. It continues to support pupils in achieving well above local and national averages for progress across all key stages.
Sponsored by The Rosedale Hewens Academy Trust, Hewens Primary opened in September 2013 in response to the demand for places. With high standards of teaching and learning, together with clear expectations, the children are able to feel safe and valued. In this very special setting, children quickly settle to work and relish being in their beautiful, stimulating classrooms.
The children are rightly proud of their uniform and like to be smart; feeling ready to work.
