‘Stonebow Primary School is a welcoming school with a strong community feel. The school recognises and celebrates its diversity. As a result, pupils are proud of their differences and treat each other with respect and courtesy.’ Ofsted November 2024
I’m proud to be the headteacher of Stonebow Primary School, which has been recognised as a happy one. Our dedicated team work together to ensure that all children achieve their potential through rich, high quality learning experiences, in partnership with parents and the wider community.
We encourage our pupils to use their ‘Stonebow Powers’ of Perseverance, Concentration, Curiosity, Cooperation, Enthusiasm and Respect, to develop a positive growth mindset and become lifelong learners.
Our broad and engaging curriculum, ensures that children receive a well-rounded education; where the attributes and talents of all children are recognised and nurtured, to ensure they experience success and reach their full potential. We aim for our children to leave Stonebow with many happy memories, along with key skills and knowledge – ready for next phase of their education and beyond!
We firmly believe that education is a partnership between home and school. Working together, we are ‘building bridges to a brighter future’.
If you would like to visit our school, please contact the school office to book an appointment. In the meantime, I encourage you to explore our website, to get a flavour of our extensive indoor and outdoor learning environment and how we use this to support our curriculum.
I look forward to meeting you soon!

🔥Year 2’s Great Fire of London Day!🔥
What an exciting day of history! Our classroom was magically transformed into Thomas Farriner’s bakery on Pudding Lane, where we worked together to make bread before disaster struck!
We formed our very own fire brigade, passing water along the crowded streets to help save London’s houses, before tackling an obstacle course to rescue our belongings as we escaped towards the River Thames.
We then discovered the story of Samuel Pepys and his buried cheese and wine! Returning to London, we hunted for hidden belongings before enjoying our well-earned cheese and juice while writing diary entries about our adventures.
A fantastic day of history brought to life!🔥🧀🍞

Sensational Swimming!!!!
Wow - we have been blown away by the progress the KS2 pupils have made in the swimming sessions over the past two weeks.
We are especially proud of those who started out feeling anxious about even getting into the water and so quickly were not only swimming but smiling too!
Well done KS2 - fantastic examples of enthusiasm, perseverance and concentration by all.

Greetings Year 5 parents. Here is the Friday update! Teaching and Learning this week: Please find images ...
Inspired to use their Stonebow Powers, the children across the school entered a competition to design superheroes to represent each of the ‘powers’. Using different elements, from a range of designs, the caped character was born – with each cape illustrating the ‘power’.
After learning about Super Powers we told the children that they all have special learning powers of their own.
