About Hatch Ride Primary School

Hatch Ride is a really attractive school, set in extensive grounds. We have already started to develop these grounds to use as a learning resource but there is loads more potential. Last term we held a sponsored sing to raise money for an amphitheatre in our woods – we managed 100 songs in 60 minutes and have great fun doing it! We are also currently digging out a pond with the help of our parents!

We are very much an Assessment for Learning School and have spent the last few years putting the principles into practice in our classrooms – we still have lots of things we want to develop but were absolutely delighted when Ofsted commented that ‘Pupils respond positively to their teachers' high expectations of work and behaviour. As a result, pupils work hard and take a pride in doing well…A major strength is the provision of well-structured opportunities for pupils to work together. This leads to excellent collaboration and strong speaking and listening skills, which support pupils' learning across the curriculum. Because teachers consistently promote teamwork, pupils know they can rely on support from each other as well as the teacher, so are confident in tackling new or difficult work.’
