At Hilltop, when we welcome your child into our reception class you can be confident that they will receive the very best start to their educational journey which will prepare them for the adults they will one day become.

We teach our pupils Skills For life, not only to ensure that they reach their potential at every age but also to give them an education that is for the whole person and not just academic excellence. Our Ofsted rating is Good and we cherish our reputation as one of the best primary schools in the borough.

We use the Skills For Life ethos in everything we do and we teach the children to adhere to our RECIPE: Respect, Excellence, Cooperation, Independence, Perseverance and Enjoyment.

An excellent work ethic and good behaviour are embedded in life at Hilltop, where the children enjoy a varied curriculum which is greatly enhanced with lots of enrichment activities to engage them in the topics we teach and offering them support from specialist teachers across the Trust. Everything we do in the Skills for Life Trust is aimed at preparing all of our pupils to reach their full potential through high quality teaching with a curriculum that includes the essential life skills.

We work closely with our parents and carers to ensure that every child achieves the best possible outcome to prepare them for secondary education and beyond. The staff at Hilltop are totally dedicated to the children’s development and they make sure that their love for learning will stay with them throughout their academic journey.

We know that choosing the right primary school for your child is so important, especially to encourage a lifelong love of learning so we warmly welcome you to  arrange a visit to the school to see for yourself what we can offer your child.
