    As a parent with two children in the junior school for the last five years I can honestly recommend…read morethis school as would my children who are excited and happy to go there. The care, love and dedication they have for their pupils has been at times humbling. Our daughter went there from Nursery due to a complete lack of school places in the area. It was never our intention to educate privately but we are so glad that did with the support that they have given us over the years. The first year fees were not actually much different from the nursery fees so it wasn't too much of a financial shock. Fees on the whole are fairly low compared to many private schools in the area and when offset against the cost of hiring a childminder in the state school (the hours of care are 8-5) it is extremely reasonable. Resource wise, the school recently refurbished the playground to a fun astro-turf style. They make use of the senior school for year 6 science and some games. Classes are typically small and focused with both my children currently between 12-15 which gives the children a lot of attention. They seem to work on a rounded child approach so non-academic fun stuff appears to be as important as the more formal type. There are trips both paid and free, drama, sports, clubs, societies and an end of year disco. This school has been a delightful surprise and we are so glad we chose to go there. They have a number of open days throughout the year but you can just arrange a visit at any time.

    It is a very underperforming and toxic school. Children have problems and the teachers don't listen…read moreto the children.

    Hampton Hill Junior School is a large (360 pupils) junior school nestled on St James' Avenue not…read morefar from Hampton Hill High Street. It is housed in a rather picturesque building dating from the 1920s, though it has been expanded and improved since. Hampton Hill Junior School educates pupils from years 3 - 6 (ages 7 - 11), and is linked with Carlisle Infant School (meaning that in most cases, pupils will finish Carlisle in year 2 and progress fairly seamlessly with their classmates into HHJS). The headteacher, Bill Jerman, is excellent. He is a strong leader, taking no guff from the children! He impressed me particularly when my daughter attended. I was writing a paper (I was a mature student doing a part time degree) on religious education and collective worship, and asked, after a parent teacher evening, if I could attend a 'normal' (as opposed to harvest) assembly. He told me I could, and we arranged a date. It occurred to me afterwards that I hadn't told him who I was. I arrived on the appointed day, worried that no-one would be expecting me, but sure enough, he greeted me, got me settled before the children arrived, and then discussed the yearly assembly programme and RE scheme of work after the assembly. My daughter had good teachers with a couple of truly excellent ones. The school runs extension programmes for gifted children which benefited my daughter, and also taught French (in a fun, non pressurised way) to its year 6 pupils. All in all, this is a very good state junior school, which prepares its pupils admirably for secondary school and beyond.
