Welcome to Watling Park School, a free school in Burnt Oak in Edgware, London. We are part of the Bellevue Place Education Trust.

We pride ourselves on offering a broad, exciting curriculum for all pupils which builds on their own strengths and interests, while supporting each child’s developmental needs, through exploration, creativity and practical application. We equip each and every pupil with the skills, knowledge, understanding and mindset to succeed in the next stage of their education and throughout their life.

We are a friendly and inclusive school, with a modern building with excellent facilities, including an extensive outdoor space as well as a football pitch. We believe that a child’s education is a partnership between home and school and we work closely with families to create a learning environment where children feel safe, happy, well-motivated and healthy. We work hard to support all children to grow and flourish as confident individuals with high personal aspirations and a lifelong love of learning. We celebrate diversity and teach children to recognise and respect individual differences as well as similarities.

Our staff work tirelessly to ensure that each and every child is encouraged and challenged, make excellent progress and achieve their full potential. We offer a knowledge-rich curriculum driven by high-quality teaching within a calm and nurturing learning environment. Our children are kind, respectful and a pleasure to teach.

We know that choosing a school is one of the most important decisions you will make as a parent, and I therefore encourage you to book on a school tour, so that we can show you around. I am proud and privileged to be the Headteacher of Watling Park Primary School and look forward to welcoming you here in person.

Liz Haynes, Headteacher
