Celebrating 25 Years
​
What a success! After starting Educare Small School in February 1997 with three pupils, we have reached 2022 and 25 years with 40 children and 14 full and part time staff. But it's not about size, our strong values and beliefs remain at the core of everything we do. The principles and practices we have had in place since our early days are only just being brought into many schools today.
We must be doing something right!.
Over 500 children have passed through our school in those 25 years and blossomed through our different approach to teaching and learning. Many of them keep in touch and let us know the exciting and impressive steps they are taking on their life journeys.
Could it be that we are a school model for the future?
Where next?
Spending their primary years at Educare does have a special and particular impact on the children. They are grounded, secure, able to make themselves heard whilst respecting the views of others and their differences. They have the tools to develop as individuals within the context of the community they are in. Past experience has shown that they make the transition to their next school with ease and confidence.
In the past three academic years, the work of all children moving on to secondary education met or exceeded Year 6 age-related expectations. Educare Small School pupils have gained places at the following secondary schools:
Teddington School
