Values and vision

With the community at the centre, our school strives to offer a world-class curriculum with enrichment opportunities that will equip our pupils to succeed and thrive. The ethos of the school is one of positivity, determination and drive to achieve each individual pupil’s potential. Each success and step towards progress is celebrated and the culture of the school is one of development and innovation as we work together to achieve our aspirations.

Hadley Learning Community Primary Phase is a truly inclusive school that passionately cares about every child. We create an environment where the children feel safe, happy, confident and inspired to learn.

The Children at Hadley Learning Community Primary Phase are the heartbeat of our school and benefit from the design of an all-through school. They have access to outstanding secondary facilities and use of resources in subjects such as technology, the arts and sport, which out-weighs what most other primary schools are able to offer. Additionally, staff and children benefit from access to specialist teachers and benefit from the close links with secondary students who can act as mentors and we can facilitate pupils learning alongside each other.

For a number of years the primary phase has been oversubscribed suggesting that our families and community are happy with the quality of education our pupils receive. From September 2016 we admitted 90 children into our Reception year group in three classes of 30, the school will continue to expand in this way year on year so that there are three full classes in each year group by 2022. It is an exciting time to be part of the school’s expansion and be part of our positive journey to improve the outcomes for each child. Embedded in our culture is the desire to reach our potential in all that we do; the children and staff are proud to be part of HLC and work tirelessly to achieve their best.
