School Information
Kew Riverside Primary School is a one-form entry school which forms part of the London Borough of Richmond's Private Finance Initiative project in partnership with Semperian PLC. The school opened in September 2002. The pupil role is currently 185 (Census Aut 2019) with a capacity for 210. We are a GOOD school (Ofsted 2017) with strong ambitions to be even better!
Our vision is to help our children become emotionally intelligent and socially responsible individuals who set and achieve the highest standards for themselves. We provide a dynamic creative curriculum that encourages the voice, engagement and independence of every child. We work closely with parents and the whole community to create learning opportunities to develop the whole child.
Kew Riverside Primary School has a richly diverse community with 47% of children having English as an additional language and there are currently 33 different languages spoken as well as English. We strongly believe in inclusive education and celebrate all children's progress and achievements equally. Our pupils enjoy an extended and enriched curriculum which includes Foreign Language teaching from Y1, P.E. delivered by a specialist practitioner and a range of before/after school clubs.
The local catchment area comprises a mix of private housing and local authority housing. We are very aware that opportunities at Kew Riverside Primary School must extend to our whole community whatever the economic background. We are committed to ensuring continuing academic excellence and progress whilst providing an enriched/extended curriculum and wider opportunities for all.
The school site is open for children from 7.30am to 6.15pm. The school has achieved a Healthy Schools Bronze award in recognition of our healthy lifestyle, food choices and activities as well as the Silver Sports Mark (Aut 2016).
