Welcome to Hannah More Primary School. Our website is here to give you a flavour of our school, but it can't replace a visit! If you are interested in finding out more about the school please do 'phone or email us to make an appointment.
The first time that I came to Hannah More, I could tell that it was a magical place to be. I knew that I wanted to work here because the sense of community was so strong. The children were so enthusiastic and questioned the world around them. They welcomed me warmly and talked excitedly about their learning.
I wasn’t wrong, and since I have taken over as Headteacher I have seen the strength of community and relationships here. Hannah More is a diverse school with a big heart. The staff are amazing and all work incredibly hard to give children the best opportunities available. A carefully thought through curriculum, with our school community and position in the very centre of Bristol at its core, ensures that children learn with purpose and make excellent progress from their starting points.
We have 5 key values that run through everything that we do; Nurture, openness, respect, determination and enjoyment. Our relationship-based approach recognises the fact that all children need to be nurtured to achieve. Openness is fundamental when teaching children about different cultures, faiths and opinions. Children learn to respect everyone and everything and be proud of their school and recognise the achievements of everyone around them. Determination is celebrated and children are resilient learners. All of the above is framed by enjoyment. We know that a love of learning can hold the key to successful education and a job and career that they enjoy.
The best way to appreciate Hannah More is to come and see us. We have been developing our outdoor space with a new forest and meadow. People are always amazed when they see the outdoor space that our children are lucky enough to have. The website can give you lots more information about our school and curriculum, but the magic begins when you step through the doors.
Come and join the Hannah More community!
