Clare House Primary School

At Clare House, the children are at the heart of every decision we make.

Clare House is a vibrant and successful community-based school where every child is known as an individual and where our Governing Body, PTA and hugely supportive parent body play a central role in helping us to achieve what we want for our children; an ambitious and inspirational education enabling every child to flourish.

We are truly proud of all that we have achieved as an outstanding school (Ofsted 2019) and we will continue to build on this foundation.  We continue to dedicate ourselves towards providing rich opportunities for learning in the present, whilst preparing our children for dynamic and successful futures in an ever-changing world.

As part of Impact Multi Academy Trust, Clare House School benefits from working closely with the other schools in The Trust – Langley Park Primary, Hawes Down Primary, Langley Park School for Boys, Langley Park School for Girls, Hayes School and Ravens Wood School. We have the opportunity to collaborate and share good practice whilst still retaining our individual identity and ethos.

If you are in the process of applying for school places and would like to visit our wonderful learning environment to see all that it has to offer please contact the school office.  It is important that you see the school in action and get a sense of it ‘at work’; this will help you make the important decision about your child’s primary education.

Vision Statement
An ambitious and inspirational education enabling every child to flourish.

Mission Statement
Our children will develop a love of learning and the social, academic and life skills to be successful as engaged and respectful individuals who are curious about the wider world

Ethos
Clare House is a close-knit school with a strong sense of community. We are proud of our traditions and history, while simultaneously being forward-looking and highly ambitious for every child who attends the school.

Our Children Will:

• be safe, happy and confident and will leave the school with a love of learning and the social, academic and life skills to be successful as engaged and productive citizens of the modern world
• have curious minds, perseverance and resilience; they will have good character and embrace new opportunities, work hard and not give up easily on challenges
• develop excellent core skills in reading, writing and maths, as the foundations of future success. They will have a love of reading for pleasure, offering them a lifetime of knowledge, stimulation and joy far beyond their years of formal education
• have a broad range of opportunities in the curriculum including: Philosophy for Children, specialist provision in P.E., Music and Modern Foreign Languages. All children take part in concerts and productions and we have competitive teams in a range of sports
• know that Clare House is a school built around respect; they will have respect for all members of the school, the community and their environment. That respect is mutual and the voice of the children plays a central role in the life of the school – symbolised by our School Council

The Governing Body sets the strategic direction of the school and has high expectations for the staff and the education and opportunities offered for every child. Parents and Carers share the school’s vision and ambition for their children’s education and make a wide-ranging contribution to the life of the school. We promote positive, open communication between parents, carers and every member of the school staff.
