What Makes Homerswood Unique?
At Homerswood Primary and Nursery School, we’re proud to offer something truly special. Rooted in the heart of our local community, we celebrate and support a wonderfully diverse group of children and families. But what really sets us apart?
Inclusion at Our Core
We are proud to be a Flagship School for the Inclusion Quality Mark, recognising our commitment to ensuring every child feels valued, supported, and celebrated. Our dedicated, non-teaching Inclusion Manager plays a key role in supporting children’s wellbeing and individual needs.
Positive Behaviour, Positive Culture
Our consistent and nurturing approach to behaviour promotes respect, resilience, and kindness throughout our school. It’s part of what creates such a warm and welcoming environment.
Strong Family Connections
We go beyond the school gates! From weekend family events to evening celebrations, we’re proud to work closely with parents and carers through unique community groups like FUDGE and GLAM as well as the half-termly Parent Forum meetings.
Enriched Learning Experiences
Our ‘Footprints’ enrichment programme helps every child discover new passions and talents. These experiences are captured in their personal Pathway Pads, creating a lasting record of their growth and achievements. Please see the curriculum page for an overview what your child will expect to take part in over their time at Homerswood.
A Love of PE and Music
We provide exciting opportunities in PE/sports and Music, strengthened by strong partnerships with the local community, including Monks Walk School and the Hertfordshire Music Service.
Learning with Technology
Every child at Homerswood has access to their own Chromebook, supporting interactive, future-focused learning in every classroom.
A Range of After-School Clubs
With a wide range of after-school activities, there’s something for everyone; from sports and arts to coding, cooking and gardening.
Meet Our School Pets!
Children love spending time with Buzz, our friendly school dog, and Pebble, our calm and curious school tortoise. They’re both treasured members of our school team.
