- The Jenny Hammond Primary School is a small, multicultural community school situated in the southern part of Waltham Forest. Our school comprises children and adults of different faiths and cultures who work happily together. Our school is named after Jenny Hammond who was Mayor of Leyton from 1942-43. She was an active councilor for 35 years and campaigned for just causes throughout her life. The causes that she particularly fought for were those that would benefit the welfare of the local community in Waltham Forest. Jenny Hammond was chair of the Education Committee for 17 consecutive years. She lived close to the school and made regular visits to what was then Cann Hall Infant and Junior schools. She died in her nineties having done much for the communities she served. Our school is housed in a Victorian building and newly built fantastic teaching and learning spaces completed in 2017. At present, the school has 330 children with an intake of 60 children in our Reception classes, Year 1 and Year 2. We are currently expanding year on year to become a complete 2 form entry school in 2021. At The Jenny Hammond Primary School, we see education as an ongoing process and one that is very much a partnership between school and home. We feel proud to have the exciting task of joining parents in their children’s development. Providing a child-centered philosophy we treat each child as an individual. Children are organized to work with Learning Partners, small groups, individually or as members of the whole class depending on the activity. Ofsted had a very positive visit to our school in May 2017 commenting: The Jenny Hammond Primary School is good. Adults have high expectations for pupils in terms of behavior and outcomes.
