Pearl Hyde Community Primary School has over 300 children from Reception to Year 6. We are a one and half form entry with 45 children per year group. This gives us the unique opportunity to teach children in year groups for Maths and English, and teach in mixed classes for other curriculum subjects.

We have a unique school site with a beautiful school field, pond and Forest School area which is utilised across the school year to teach children skills outside of the traditional curriculum.

We have an active involvement in Sports events across the city, accessing many tournaments including football, rowing, tennis and Hado. We are always looking for ways to me more inclusive, ensuring that there are no barriers to our children regardless of gender, race, religion or SEND needs and we regularly have teams in inclusive tournaments.

As part of our mission that we share with Finham Park Multi Academy Trust, we want children have a World Class Education. For us this looks like ensuring our curriculum is enhanced and culturally diverse. For example, this year alone Pearl Hyde children have visited the local Gurdwara, the local theatre, the farm and had many other experiences linked to their learning or our World Class Education pathway that enables children have ‘the time of their lives’.

Improving children’s spoken language is a key part of Oracy strategy. We have identified that giving children the ability to articulate their thoughts, feelings and the knowledge they have acquired gives them the past possible chance to succeed in later life.
