St Marks Primary School

[EduCativ]

St Mark’s is a two-form entry community school set in the heart of Hanwell, which is part of the London Borough of Ealing. We promote our values through having high expectations of all our stakeholders, delivering high-quality learning experiences, and creating a stimulating, safe and healthy environment. St Mark’s benefits from magnificent outside space including a large field, hard pitch, and a nature area with a pond. Our new building has given us a spacious hall, in which we can celebrate as a whole school and enjoy lunchtimes. We now have three new state-of-the-art classrooms and extra teaching spaces around the school.
Our children are engaged and enthusiastic learners and benefit from a broad, balanced, and creative curriculum. There are many opportunities for children to take part in music and sport and the curriculum is enriched by trips and visits in every year group. St Mark’s is an inclusive school meeting the needs of all pupils in a supportive and respectful environment. We are a school that is setting high standards and striving for academic excellence through everything we do.
Our recent OFSTED inspection shows that the leadership team has maintained a good quality of education in the school and that pupils consistently make good progress and achieve well. The report states that the school places significant importance on the fostering of a friendly and accepting culture, something we are very proud of at St Mark’s.
The key to our work is forging partnerships with parents and carers so that our children make the best possible progress. Appointments with senior leaders can be made through the office or directly with teaching staff and we will always try to see parents as soon as possible.
We welcome visits to the school, please contact the school office to make an appointment to have a look around. At St Mark’s Primary School we value and respect our inclusive school community and embrace the diversity that our children and their families bring to the school. We value the development of our children’s academic progress and strive to challenge and motivate children to become resilient lifelong learners.
The school promotes a broad, balanced, and accessible curriculum that motivates, stimulates, and provides high-quality learning experiences for all. As teachers and support staff we have high expectations of ourselves and the children we teach, helping them to develop respect for themselves and others to make positive choices both in school and out.
The National Curriculum consists of a variety of subjects. Four of these – English, mathematics, science, and information technology are the core subjects and expected to occupy a greater part of the timetable. The other six subjects – design and technology, history, geography, art, music, a modern foreign language (in KS2), and physical education are known as foundation subjects. These, together with Religious Education and Personal, Social, and Health Education, make up the whole school curriculum.
