About Eleanor Palmer Primary School

We are a one form entry (30 children per year group) state funded community primary school for ages 3 -11, in the London Borough of Camden.  We are a happy, ambitious and inclusive school, reflecting the rich diversity of families in our area.

In October 2011 OfSTED wrote, "Dynamic and inspirational leadership at all levels, but particularly from the headteacher and governing body, have driven the school forward in its relentless quest for excellence...Parents and carers are fulsome in their praise for all that the school is doing for their children, as summed up by one when writing, 'Eleanor Palmer is an absolutely wonderful school - warm, nurturing, extremely well led and managed, with excellent teaching and a very inclusive ethos.' Through exemplary care, guidance and support, high quality teaching, a rich and stimulating curriculum and their determination to succeed, pupils make outstanding progress and attainment is high and rising by the end of Year 6."

In 2013 we were granted Teaching School status and we lead the Camden Primary Primary Partnership Teaching School Alliance.

Teaching Schools are part of the government’s drive to give schools more freedom and take increasing responsibility for managing the schools system – it is about schools working together in partnerships and through networks to identify and co-ordinate expertise and use the best teachers and leaders to:

1.  Provide outstanding Initial Teacher Training (we train 20 teachers a year across 12 schools)

2.  Support other schools to improve (we have supported many schools both primary and secondary).

3. Focus on professional development of teachers and other school staff (whether that's running CPD, research, Teach Meets or Joint Practice development.)

We are supported in our work by key strategic partner schools from across the borough of Camden. We also coordinate the Camden NQT Primary programme for all schools.
