In our community we are kind and honest. We are confident and persevere. We all work together to keep each other safe. Welcome to Kelvedon Hatch Community Primary School. We are a one-form entry primary school, spread across three buildings on a large site.
Children are at the centre of everything that we do and we aim to ensure that all children have a happy and successful experience at our school. We believe in firm, but fair, discipline, with an emphasis on positive behaviour management.
As a fully inclusive school, we welcome all children and work closely with parents/carers and outside agencies to make necessary adaptations, both before admission and during a child's time in our school. We place great importance on building a strong partnership between home and school. Children flourish when this partnership is good.
I look forward to working with you and your child as we continue along the path of lifelong learning together. I hope that you will find the information Here you will find useful. Visits to our school are warmly encouraged, so please contact the School Office if you would like to arrange to visit.
