Kelvin Grove School

We are a three form entry primary school in the London Borough of Lewisham. We have a nursery with 18 full time places and a further 32 part time places for the morning and the afternoon. Rainbow ASD Resource Base is an integral part of the school and offers 16 places to pupils from across the borough with Autism. There is a well-established breakfast club and after school club, which supports families with childcare from 7.45am until 6pm.We are building an excellent and inclusive school community where children are proud of their achievements and excel in their learning.

We want all our children to develop a love of learning that remains with them for life. We also want them to develop the values and skills they will need to succeed in and contribute to, the diverse world in which they live.Our school has an outstanding reputation for music and sports and children too are given opportunities to develop in the arts. We aim to recognise the talents in all and cultivate these.

It is our partnership with parents which allows us to continue to improve and maintain our high standards of learning and behaviour. The whole community takes pride in our school’s focus on rights for children which help us promote equality, tolerance and respect for all.

At Kelvin Grove we want our children to feel challenged and successful, autonomous and sensitive to others and proud to be part of an inclusive learning community which is preparing them for the future. We aim to provide an excellent education through a curriculum and learning environment which is stimulating, aspirational, creative and enjoyable so as to enable all our children to achieve their highest potential.
