Welcome to our School
We are a very popular and vibrant 3 form entry primary school (90 places per year group) on the Hertfordshire/Luton border. We have invested heavily to ensure that this is a quality learning environment for the children and a wonderful workplace for the whole staff. We are continually developing our culture so that we can embed excellence at all levels.
The school is easily accessed via A505 with a No. 12 bus that stops directly outside the school gates. Our location is close to both Inspire Sports and Stopsley Village facilities.
Originally built as two separate schools, Putteridge Primary School began its life in September 2011 when the Infant and Junior school amalgamated. We are very fortunate to have large outdoor space which includes separate Foundation Stage, KS1 and KS2 playgrounds together with an extensive playing field. We are currently developing part of the outdoor area to broaden our pupils’ scientific experiences. The school building also houses a dedicated Art Room, Library and a Family Room, which runs a weekly baby group and ‘stay & play’ sessions.
Philosophy & Vision
The phrase ‘... everything should be within the child’s outstretched hand....’ summarises effectively our underlying philosophy. If all children are given an achievable challenge in all their work, they will progress well.
We want all children to leave Putteridge Primary School as fully independent learners and therefore, everything we do focuses upon highly effective teaching and learning.
What our current parents say about the school: (Quotes taken from a questionnaire – March 2018)
