QUEEN’S MANOR PRIMARY SCHOOL A Founding Member of the Brightwells Multi-Academy Trust

Highly valued by staff, parents and pupils Ofsted 2018

Queen’s Manor is a good, and inclusive, school. Staff are role models for the caring ethos.

There are excellent relationships between staff and pupils.

Pupils are enthused to learn. Adults engage with their pupils, modelling rich, engaging, conversations.

This engagement is contributing to the school’s good achievement for pupils.

Our SATs success story

Queen’s Manor is very proud to have recorded a third straight year of SATs results well in excess of the national average.

Across Hammersmith & Fulham we were placed 13th out of the 38 primary schools for combined Reading, Writing and Maths. In Reading 91% of our children reached Expected Standard (EXS), in Maths 87% reached EXS, and in Writing 83% reached EXS. In Grammar, Punctuation and Spelling, we achieved 96% at EXS and 65% at Greater Depth (GDS). The national average was 78% at EXS and 36% at GDS. Our pupil progress across all

subjects was similarly impressive.

These figures have been produced

by H&F Council. Please note the published Department of Education tables include children from our special needs unit - who don’t actually take the SATs - and give a false representation.

As Cllr Larry Culhane, H&F Cabinet Member for Education, says: “The published tables completely belie the true picture at Queen’s Manor, which continues to be one of the great success stories in the borough.

Congratulations to all the staff and pupils.”

Our Nursery

Our nursery is a much-loved and treasured fixture of the community with a fine reputation for teaching and learning that is responsive to the children’s needs.

The recently upgraded outdoors classroom, with mud kitchen and trikes, provides a creative environmental space and a broad range of experience as children begin their journey in the world of education.

We offer free 15-hour a week placements from the age of three, and full-time placements are available for those with childcare vouchers or by paying top-up fees.

We would encourage prospective parents to pay us a visit.

Extended childcare gives parents flexibility for pick-ups and drop-offs.

Extended Childcare

We support working parents with childcare places from 8am until 6pm.

We also host a large array of after school clubs including sports, crafts, cooking and Mandarin language.

Children can take their first steps on their educational ladder in an inspiring and creative environment.

A Note from the Head, Phoebe du Parcq Making the right choice about where to send your child to school is one of the most important decisions any parent can take.

That is why I would like to welcome you to visit Queen’s Manor before you make that decision.

We have a beautiful school in wonderful grounds on the banks of the Thames in the heart of the Fulham Palace Riverside community.

We inspire our pupils, whilst developing motivated, independent and collaborative learners who all have the opportunity to succeed in their learning.

Our children take pride in their work and achievements.

Through the creative delivery of our curriculum, we cultivate an inclusive and supportive sense of community, rooted in understanding, acceptance and respect for one another.

Parents and visitors alike comment on the friendly and welcoming nature of the school. The teachers strive to make lessons fun and inspiring.

Our results are testament to that, as is our most recent Ofsted report which recognised: “Teachers and support staff have created attractive and welcoming learning environments so that pupils are enthused to learn.�

I really look forward to welcoming you for a visit.
