- Tucked away in between Balham and Streatham we pride ourselves on having a ‘small school feeling’ rooted in a strong sense of community. Everyone is welcome at Telferscot and we pride ourselves on being a school with a 'village feel' in urban London. We are like a hidden gem – once you find us you will not want to leave! The school is expanded to a two-form entry school with 11 classes: the nursery class followed by four key stage 1 (infant) classes: reception, year 1 and year 2 then the four key stages 2 (junior) classes years 3, 4, 5 and 6. Each class has a maximum of 30 pupils. Our school commits to providing a broad and balanced curriculum that meets the guidelines set out in the National Curriculum and Early Years framework. Our School Curriculum follows all the requirements of the National Curriculum but we are proud to offer a much broader curriculum than that, making the most of many and varied opportunities in London and around the country to broaden and enrich the curriculum for our children. The emphasis is on British Life, Society, and History. The National Curriculum provides the school with the outline of knowledge, skills, and understanding that we are required to cover in school. We choose to teach much of this through creative, cross-curricular themes where children will learn different strands of the curriculum from a range of subjects, all within one common theme for a term. The curriculum has a strong commitment to equal opportunities, diversity, and multi-cultural values and ensures that all children enjoy success and high standards. We aim to teach our curriculum in an engaging, interesting, and stimulating way primarily through a thematic approach. The school runs a framework of study that is based on the individual subject guidance and our commitment to topic work that makes links between subjects. In planning learning for children, every teacher ensures that learning is fully embedded in real-life skills that promote lifelong learning. Telferscot continues to have a long commitment to family learning. We believe that families who participate in learning together maximize every child's opportunity for success. Being involved as a parent/carer demonstrates to children that joining in is important and that a have-a-go attitude is incredibly rewarding. All children are encouraged to achieve their full potential and to be included in the social and academic life of the school. We aim to provide educational experiences that take into account the individual needs of all children, appropriate to their level of ability. View full school
