Emerson Valley School is a 4-form entry Junior School in the heart of Emerson Valley. We recently joined the 5 Dimensions Trust and these are exciting times for our school.  I am immensely proud to be the Executive Headteacher of both Emerson Valley and Merebrook Infant School.

We encourage all of our children to aspire to be independent, resilient, lifelong learners who have the skills to adapt to the changing world around them. They have respect for each other, themselves and our community. To be the best they can be as global citizens, we aim to develop socially aware individuals who understand the impact they can have on others.

Our children are happy and develop a love and enthusiasm for learning, where they are challenged to their full potential. They have pride in everything they do from their relationships, to the effort they put in to achieving their goals. We strive to create a safe and nurturing environment where children’s mental health and well-being is at the heart of our Federation. 

To achieve our vision, everything we do is underpinned by our three key themes: Community, Pride, Aspire.

We were most recently visited by OfSTED in October 2022 and were graded as a GOOD school in all 4 key areas. The published report, which you can view in the ‘Information’ section of this website, reports that ‘Pupils are happy and feel safe at this inclusive school. They learn how to look after their physical and mental well-being. Pupils trust staff to help them sort out any worries or concerns quickly. Behaviour in lessons and around school is good.’

 I hope that you find our website informative. If you have any questions about our school, then please do not hesitate to contact our school office for further information.
