About Hollickwood Primary School
Hollickwood School is a very special place for children to learn and grow.
Our aim is to build a strong caring partnership between home and school because children achieve their best when parents and teachers work together.
School ethos
We believe that everyone is unique and has something special to offer, and that learning should always be fun.
School aims
The governors and staff are determined that Hollickwood School will provide high quality, well organised education within a broad and balanced curriculum. The school aims to realise the potential of every single pupil, and will provide the best possible educational opportunities to the wider community by:
• Continuously developing and sustaining a stimulating atmosphere.
• Ensuring that each pupil reaches their full potential and develops the self-confidence and self-discipline necessary to become responsible, caring adults.
• Promoting a sense of partnership between staff, pupils, parents and the wider local community.
• Maintaining non-selective admission criteria.
As a small school each child soon comes to know and is known well by the staff. We are fortunate to have six teaching assistants and one learning mentor who are always available to support the children throughout the school day. A quote from our recent Ofsted report reinforces this welcoming and personal aspect of the school:
“Pupils feel safe and relationships between staff, pupils and parents are strong, creating a
happy and welcoming community. This is seen in pupils’ thoughtful behaviour around the
school and in the way pupils work together in lessons.”
