Despite our size, families call us the “village school in the heart of Wimbledon” which captures the essence of the unique family atmosphere and our fantastic pastoral care.

Our aims are expressed in three words – Opportunity, Excellence and Success.

Opportunity – We value education in its broadest sense and want all pupils to be excited, stimulated and challenged by the wide range of activities on offer. We provide rich learning experiences that allow every child to master basic skills, discover and develop their talents and interests, and succeed in ways they did not imagine possible.

Excellence – Delivering excellence is at the heart of our school aims, built on a foundation of outstanding teaching from inspiring staff who are committed to staying at the forefront of educational practice and creating a secure and supportive learning environment.

Success – We are proud of our academic results and many children leaving us achieve the academic standards necessary for selective or independent schools. However, we also recognise that personal development alongside academic progress is essential to helping children become the very best they can be, so we teach children how to be successful learners throughout the whole of their education – persistent, resourceful, innovative, reflective and collaborative.

We are very proud to be one of the top performing primary schools in the country (click here and here to read recent letters from the Secretary of State for School Standards). Although such letters, accolades and league table positions are never the objective, they do give me confidence that we are doing an excellent job of giving our children the widest opportunities and securest foundations as they move on to secondary school.

Wimbledon Park Primary School is a great place to work. Supply teachers always ask us if we can re-book them, or if we have any jobs! As a growing school, we have new employment opportunities arising regularly, although most of our recruiting takes place around Easter.

Our Osfted report highlighted that "high quality training and innovative guidance from school leaders has supported staff in sharing great teaching practices, raising the quality of teaching across the school."

'I have been working at Wimbledon Park for 4 years. Being part of such a great community is what makes Wimbledon Park so special. With such a caring group of teachers around, I have always felt supported throughout each stage of my career. Everyone is so willing to help each other out both personally and professionally and working with people like this makes coming to work easy and enjoyable.'
