Our School Buildings and Grounds

We have two buildings, the Thames Building and the Southwick Building, which each house children from both key stages to ensure that pupils feel part of the same bigger school community. We have two large halls that are used throughout the year for a variety of things such as assemblies, concerts and special events. 

The main reception is in the Thames Building. Please come here for all enquiries or visits as you will need to sign in.

We have two entrances to our school. The Craven Avenue entrance is by the lower school area of the playground and is open from 8.30am until 8.45am and 3.05pm until 3.30pm. The Long Road entrance is via the Pupil Gate and is open from 7.30am for pupils attending Breakfast Club. Pupils should be accompanied by their parents or carers to the Southwick Building main door. The Pupil Gate closes at 9.00am and opens again at 3.00pm.

Our classrooms are well resourced with the latest modern technology to support children’s learning. Every classroom is equipped with interactive whiteboards, visualisers and digital cameras and we have a technology room. We also have a set of Chromebooks that pupils can use in the classrooms.  

Disabled Access & Facilities

We have a designated parking space and two toilets for the use of stakeholders with a disability. The main entrances to the school are fully accessible for wheelchair users and we provide suitable places at events that parents/carers are invited to.

Safeguarding

The school needs to be a secure site which is why we have electronic gates at the front of the school and a secure entry system on other doors.

If you need to go to the main reception you will need to enter the school by the Long Road entrance. This is to ensure that we know who has entered the school building at any one time.

• Dogs are not permitted on the school site
• There is no smoking on the school site
