Welcome to our school
Merton Park's Y1 phonics achievement in 2023 placed us in the top 3% of all
schools in England.
Merton Park was named as one of the top 500 Primary schools in England in 2024 by the Times & Sunday Times.
Welcome, and thank you for taking the time to find out about our school.
We pride ourselves on being a friendly and open school that offers a high-quality education for all our children.
We are enormously proud of our school and its place in the community. In everything we do, we strive for the very best to ensure children have a truly memorable primary school experience. There is an emphasis on using the rich range of resources available to us in the local area and beyond, as we believe that this helps to develop lively and enquiring minds and teaches children important life skills.
On joining the school children quickly become an integral part of the community. As a small school there is a caring, family atmosphere where all children are taught the importance of consideration and respect for other people and their beliefs.
Children’s outcomes are consistently high ensuring they are ready for secondary school and all children receive a well-rounded education, including varied trips & visitors, an interesting arts programme and a range of sporting opportunities and competitions. The school prides itself on having respectful and happy children that have a zest for learning.
We value forming strong partnerships with parents and the local and global community thus encouraging pupils to be empathetic global citizens. Parents are heavily involved as partners by drawing on their cultures, professions and life experiences.
Merton Park Primary is a Gold Rights Respecting School and we support the UN Convention on the rights of the child. Children across the school are taught about the articles contained within the convention and they can be seen in every aspect of life at our school.
The staffing team is full of passionate and inspiring teachers that help children develop lifelong memories and leave Merton Park fully ready for their next stage in education.
