About Us

Hawthorns is a small one form entry primary school, with approximately 150 children on roll, plus an onsite nursery. We aim for all children to feel happy, safe and able to learn at their best, We use the words Pride, Respect and Success to capture our school vision and give us a focus for every day.

The school lies in beautiful grounds where nature is abundant and so there are plenty of opportunities for children to take their learning outdoors and we actively encourage this. We are fortunate to have our own enclosed pond area and forest school site as well as a small field and separate playgrounds.

We are part of the Schoolsworks Academy Trust, which gives us the opportunity to

collaborate and share good practice across 10 schools. Through this, by joining a

Schoolsworks school, you will benefit from numerous CPD opportunities that will allow you to improve and progress your career.
