Welcome to
Rushcombe First School

Rushcombe is a friendly and caring school for children aged four to nine years old. Children’s early experiences lay the foundations for the rest of their lives and we are committed to providing high quality education for all children in partnership with parents. We provide an exciting and innovative curriculum within a safe, stimulating and caring environment where children are welcomed as individuals, where they can be confident, secure and are valued for all they achieve.

As a large first school with high standards of achievement, our experienced and dedicated team of teaching and support staff get to know each child and work with you in helping your child to succeed. We encourage the children to demonstrate independence, involvement and responsibility in and for their learning, with the highest standards of effort and behaviour. We believe that the children of Rushcombe will be inspired and fulfilled, and will become responsible and confident members of the community with a lifelong enthusiasm for learning.

This website will provide a range of information about our school, however, you are welcome to visit us to find out more. I would be happy to meet you and discuss the school in more detail and answer any questions you may have. On your visit you will see our attractive and well-equipped school and grounds, meet some of our children and observe their learning and achievements. I look forward to meeting you, and your child, and welcoming you to our school.

Yours sincerely, Caroline Mahon, Headteacher
