Background:

The school was built in 1952 and is situated in an area of semi-detached owner occupied houses. In 1994, due to subsidence, the whole school - excluding the administrative block - was rebuilt. All classrooms open out onto grassed areas. The school has two playgrounds, a football field and a specialist music room. It also has a networked suite of 16 multimedia computers which are placed in a central area. All classrooms have a computer that is also networked, and all classes have weekly timetabled lessons using the computers. As a result of a 'successful' OfSTED inspection the school applied for Beacon Status, which was granted in Septmeber 1999. Extra curricular activities are offered for soccer, netball, cricket and tennis. Last year the school finished second in the Ruislip and Northwood District Swimming Gala. Music clubs are offered for recorder, choir and orchestra. Over the last two years a member of staff, together with parents and children, has 'transformed' an unused area of the school grounds into a school garden. In 1999 the school won the Hinman Shield, awarded by the Eastcote Village conservation Advisory Panel, for conservation work. The school has a house system and school council, and pupils elect captains and respresentatives for these two respective groups. Last year the school council organised a toy/book sale and the proceeds were used to sponsor two children at the Kings World Trust Orphanage in Tamil Nadu, South India. Pupils are encouraged to fund raise for both local and national charities.
