Lakeside, a two form entry Primary School, set in large pleasant grounds, is approximately 1.5 miles from Junction 4 of the M3 motorway in Surrey. The single storey buildings are well maintained and include a separate dining hall, library, music room, gym and ICT suite. There are separate facilities for studying Design & Technology. In addition, every class benefits the facilities of a class based interactive whiteboard. Outside, both infant & junior playgrounds are adjacent to the large playing fields.

The school is well supported by an active Friends of Lakeside Parent Society and a committed Governing Body.Outside school hours, facilities exist for childcare at either 'Lakeside Early Bird Club' or after school at 'The Tree Tots'  

 Lakeside Primary School community, a two-form entry primary school has its own Nursery, 'The Ducklings' which caters for children from 3 - 11 years old. The children are at the heart of the Lakeside community and, as a school, we actively promote an environment where each child is valued, nurtured and guided in preparation for the challenges ahead. We aim  for them to achieve their full potential through a creative, broad and enriched curriculum.

We are fortunate to have excellent amenities and extensive, well-maintained grounds, which are used to their maximum potential for the benefit of our children's education. We believe that the education of our children is a shared responsibility between home and school. We work in close partnership with parents to ensure that our children have a positive and rewarding journey throughout their time at Lakeside. We actively encourage parental involvement in our school and this helps to create an environment where the children feel happy, confident and secure. We are indebted to our supportive parents. 

We are proud of both our academic achievements and the extra-curricular opportunities which we offer to the children. Every child deserves an equal chance to reach their potential and to make a valuable contribution to their community. Together with the dedicated staff team and supportive Governing Body, we are committed to making this happen. 

A regular supply teacher:

" I always feel welcome and valued at Lakeside ~ being thanked at the end of the day means a lot. I very much enjoy working at Lakeside. Discipline is good and if I do have a problem I have support to deal with it.  All the work is left for me, instructions are easy to follow and everyone is very supportive and helpful".

A recent NQT:

"This is a friendly and supportive school, with a nurturing style.  I was mentored by the Deputy Head and given lots of support and had regular meetings.  There are plenty of CPD opportunities.  The children are lovely too!"

An experienced Teaching Assistant:

"I've been with the school for over ten years, and really enjoy coming to work.  I started off as a mid day supervisor and successfully gained my NVQ2 and 3 here and now work as an advanced TA.  The work can be challenging, and everyday is different."  

The Kite Academy Trust was formed in October 2015 with five local schools coming together to provide the very best for all of our children, families and staff.

Our Trust is built around our shared vision - for every pupil to be happy and healthy; to contribute positively to their communities and achieve academic excellence - and our ‘AIR’ values of Aspiration, Integrity & Respect. Our staff are at the heart of our success, collaborating at every level to create high quality, vibrant and inspiring learning journeys for our children to enjoy.

THE LITTLE DUCKLINGS NURSERY is one of our greatest assets. We stimulate our children’s natural curiosity, nurture their capacity to learn and enable them to form relationships and to express themselves as individuals.
