Welcome
I have been a proud Headteacher of Hampton Vale Primary Academy, Seedlings and Little Seedlings Nursery for the past seven years and I have watched the school grow into an incredibly special place where children truly thrive. Our team of dedicated staff ensure that children are safe, happy and engaged throughout their time with us, and we are immensely proud of the excellent progress they make.
All children within our school and nursery experience a broad and balanced curriculum which stimulates their imagination, extends their knowledge, and nurtures a lifelong love of learning. We are fortunate to have a team of specialist teachers who deliver high-quality lessons in Music, Dance, Drama, PE, Art and Forest School – providing a rich and inspiring curriculum that allows every child to discover and develop their unique talents.
At Hampton Vale, we believe that education is about so much more than academic achievement. It is about developing confident, kind and resilient young people who are ready to take on the challenges of the future and contribute positively to the world around them. I am incredibly proud of our children and all that they achieve every day.
Mrs P. Chamberlain
Headteacher

Exciting start to the week at Hampton Vale! We are thrilled to share that we have discovered frogspawn in our Forest School pond! Over the next few weeks, every class will have the opportunity to observe the fascinating process of metamorphosis up close. The children will be watching carefully as the frogspawn develops into tadpoles and, eventually, frogs discussing and exploring the changes they notice along the way. What a fantastic real-life learning experience for our young scientists!
