From the Hill Mead Primary School
Thank you for visiting Hill Mead Primary School. Since 2002, I have served as the school's head teacher. In a recent inspection, Lambeth stated that at our school, "teachers bring the curriculum to life." This is partly because we base as much learning as possible around trips and visits away from the classroom - roughly one a fortnight! Our special focus is on trips to the theatre, and on workshops and performing, through our partnerships with the National and Unicorn Theatres. Every year group from Nursery to Year 6 has this as a priority in their curriculum. Our photo gallery contains some recent examples. Our teachers put their greatest efforts into their planning and delivery of the curriculum; and this is further strengthened by the governors funding an additional teacher in every year group. Furthermore, we regularly attract the very best teachers to come and work at Hill Mead. Recently, the UK Literacy Association presented us with a national award for Diversity and Inclusion. They judged that our unique curriculum 'has produced children who are confident, engaged and proud of their own heritage and that of their community.' These outstanding learning opportunities are freely available to any child who wants a place in our school - regardless of background, academic potential or individual need. We will go above and above your expectations, and I am looking forward to meeting you. 2018 Lambeth Inspection Report, Richard West What sets Hill Mead apart? Outstanding in all areas.
