Welcome to Farnham Primary School

I am delighted to welcome you to our website. When children come to Farnham we strive to ensure that all pupils are safe, happy and learning.

Our vision is to develop well-rounded, independent, confident individuals who have a passion for life-long learning.  We raise aspirations and self-esteem to give children a strong belief in their abilities. We set appropriate standards of work and behaviour and encourage children to take pride in their work, themselves, and all that they do.  Pupils receive a high-quality education in all areas of the curriculum including reading, writing and maths so that they have a wealth of
knowledge, skills and experiences to allow them to achieve their potential and succeed in the future.  Children are given every opportunity to articulate their learning and views to develop confidence in oracy.  We promote self-respect, enthusiasm and curiosity.

We have high expectations and offer an ambitious, broad and balanced curriculum to ensure pupils develop academically, socially, morally, physically and emotionally.  An essential part of this is the promotion of respect for the rich variety of races, cultures and religions within our
community.

We provide a welcoming, safe and supportive environment in which everyone is equal and treated with kindness, care and respect.  We are inclusive and embrace differences where everyone is known and valued.

This creates a strong sense of belonging and identity amongst our pupils and families.

We are committed to serve the families in our community and work in partnership with parents. The support of all parents is essential. We build positive relationships with all parents encouraging them to be involved so that we can help children to be the best that they can be.

Our school rules are:
1. Be Ready
2. Be Respectful
3. Be safe

In our last Ofsted (September 2021) Farnham Primary school was judged to be outstanding and we are extremely proud of our achievements.

‘Leaders have high expectations of pupils. Pupils work hard and behave well. They enjoy attending school and achieve well.’ (Ofsted, September 2021).

I hope you enjoy looking at what our school has to offer by viewing this website and video of Farnham at the bottom of this page. If you would like to see more, please contact the school to arrange a visit.
