Hillyfield Primary Academy

We are a large Six Forms of Entry (6FE) Single Academy Trust (SAT) in the London Borough of Waltham Forest. Our academy has two sites: Hillyfield on the Hill, three forms of entry from Reception to Year 6 with an onsite Nursery (3-5yrs) and Hillyfield at the Park, also three froms of entry from Recetion to Year 6 with an onsite Nursery, including provision for 2 year olds and an Autism Resourced provision with 18 places. The two sites are a 20-30 minute walk apart and serve a diverse and multicultural, multifaith community.

We have a small school feel with the benefit of large school resources.

Values and Vision

The school motto is "Brilliance in every child. Excellence every day". Hillyfield values respect, responsibility and good behaviour in its students, helping to create a positive and welcoming atmosphere. The curriculum is tailored towards giving children valuable formative experiences that will shape their later childhood. Staff encourage children to become critical, independent thinkers.

Art is a focus of the school, and an activity which the children can greatly enjoy. Hillyfield is also a registered Sing Up school, which gives it access to resources aimed at improving and maintaining vocal performance among pupils.

Ofsted

"Pupils thrive in this kind and welcoming school. They are excited to learn and are extremely happy. Although this is a large school split between two sites, there is a strong sense of community. Staff know the pupils well and working relationships are extremely positive."
