Welcome to Hartley Brook and thank you for taking the time to look at our website. Each and every one of us is proud of the achievements of our young people and adults.

I am truly honoured and privileged to be the Principal at Hartley Brook Primary School. I am very passionate about the school and feel incredibly proud of the pupils. We have developed a strong and caring whole school community, which has helped us go from strength to strength. The thoughtful and supportive staff ensure children are at the centre of everything we do. We want to provide our children with the best start in life and support them to become ambitious and prepare for life beyond the classroom.

At Hartley Brook we have high expectations of both learning and progress and ensure children are given the opportunity to reach their full potential. We have an inclusive curriculum and all children regardless of their ability are able to access all areas of the curriculum. Hartley Brooks values (tenacity, scholarship, unity, responsibility, and curiosity) underpin everything we do on a daily basis. We aim to enrich the lives of our children by providing opportunities to attend extracurricular activities. Children demonstrate true resilience and perseverance and have achieved some amazing results in sports events.

Staff work hard to create a supportive, friendly and nurturing environment which enables all children to feel safe and know they are listened to.

Best wishes

Mrs Claire Costello – Principal
