School Description

Hamilton School is an enjoyable place to learn, where pupils’ safety is paramount. Pupils take pride in learning how to be independent and display exceptionally positive attitudes to learning. Pupils enjoy coming to school. Most parents and carers that we spoke to said they are delighted with the support that school offers pupils and families. School is a welcoming environment. It is clear that pupils’ welfare is at the heart of everything that Hamilton School offers. Through the curriculum, pupils are very well looked after by a dedicated and caring staff team. Pupils model exemplary behaviour within lessons and during playtimes. Pupils are highly motivated to behave and achieve. They enjoy the reward systems that are in place. These include reward charts and missions to complete tasks around the school. Pupils also earn tokens towards weekly goody bags. Pupils feel safe in and around school. They trust the adults in school to help them if they are worried and to help them learn how to keep themselves safe. Pupils say that teachers deal with any bullying that occurs.
