The Echelford Primary School

Our school community is made up of 3 parallel classes in every year group from Reception (aged 4-5 years) all the way up to Year 6 (aged 10-11 years). This makes us one of the larger schools in Spelthorne and means we are uniquely placed to offer our children every opportunity to form numerous friendships and, at the end of their time with us, make a confident and smooth transition to secondary school.

The Before School Care timings are 7.35am-8.30am. There are two options for the After School Care, Option 1, collect at 4.30pm and Option 2, collect at 6pm. These are run mainly by Echelford staff, in this way we are able to offer consistency and continuity to the children. You are able to book now and payment must be made via Wisepay 24 hours in advance of the sessions required using your Wisepay account.

We believe children learn best within the context of a home-school relationship built on trust and open and honest dialogue. Key messages in terms of the expectations of this relationship are captured in our Home School Agreement which we ask all parents to sign at the outset of their relationship with our school.

Despite the significantly raised expectations of the 'new' Curriculum introduced in 2014, we have either matched or exceeded National Standards in all areas of our provision. 2020 & 2021 Results: due to the national lockdown, no formal assessments took place during the 2020 and 2021 summer terms. Please refer to our 2019 assessment results for our latest published data.

The purpose of this code is to provide a reminder to all parents and visitors about expected conduct so that we can work together to ensure safe and positive environments for our children. This includes approaching the school to resolve any issues of concern and to discuss and clarify specific events in order to bring about a positive solution.
