School Handbook

Our School Tours

At Kents Hill we believe choosing a school for your child is like buying a house. It needs to be the right fit for your child and family. You need to know that your child is in safe hands for not only their education, but also their well-being. To book a school tour please click here 

 

 

We encourage you to book a tour with the headteacher. She will take you around to every class during the school day. You will get the opportunity to see our brilliant teaching team in action, and to hear from our happy pupils what our school is really like. They are always keen to tell you about our delicious school meals and fun playtimes!

We will then give you an opportunity to have a school tour around our partner junior school, with whom we work very closely. The year 6 school councillors will show you around and tell you all about the junior school, their popular 11+ club!

Parent testimonials

„

The teachers and all staff I have had direct contact with have been kind and caring. Mrs Thurston sets an excellent example and I feel that she recruits the right staff. Breakfast club and reception staff are brilliant.

„

Good education and the way of teaching is excellent. My child has greatly improved since she joined the school.

„

The teachers are truly special. The nursery team are all mums and have a lot of understanding about how it is to be a parent. You can tell there is a lot of care for children. The head teacher and other leadership are out and visible all the time. The head amazingly knows all the children’s names and it makes them feel seen and safe.

„

Both my children love this school! I think it has such a community spirit, the teachers are lovely. I love the fact that Mrs Thurston stands in the playground every morning and knows every child. Even those who have since moved on to the juniors. It’s a real personal touch that is really appreciated by parents.

„

Class Dojo is fabulous in keeping everyone up to date with school news and dates as well as allowing quick communication between staff and parents. KHIA is a nurturing and inclusive school and I would recommend this school to others.

Kents Hill Infants – more than a school – we are a family!
