Rhyl Primary School

[EduCativ]

Rhyl is a harmonious two-form entry school in the heart of Kentish Town, within the Borough of Camden. We have very high expectations for all our pupils and we deliver a diverse and enriching curriculum in surroundings that allow children to feel happy and safe

Rhyl’s commitment to creativity and the arts has been recognized through our achievement of the Arts Mark Gold award. All children have weekly music lessons from our music specialist, they have the opportunity to learn a range of instruments for free and also have the chance to record in our state-of-the-art recording studio.

At Rhyl, we believe passionately in the power of outdoor learning to inspire our children we have won numerous awards for our outdoor garden which boasts a mini orchard, a secret herb garden, and a wood-fired pizza oven. We offer a breakfast club which runs from 8 am every day. It is open to pupils from Year 1 to Year 6 who can enjoy a delicious and nutritious breakfast, for just £1 per day.

Our focus so far has been on sharing examples of excellent practice, leading joint staff training sessions, developing the use of Google software, and having an annual School Review. We have called these reviews 'Collaborative Enquiries'. They are led by the Head Teacher and the Camden Professional Partner plus a peer Head Teacher from one of the Cluster Schools. The focus is something particular to each school and their School Improvement focus. These have been incredibly valuable so far in highlighting strengths across the schools but also in identifying further areas for improvement and development.
