Belong

We create a place where everyone can belong. Our school is rooted in strong Jewish values, in particular key principle of Torah Im Derech Eretz (Torah and worldly engagement through its prism). We teach our children to show kindness, respect and responsibility to everyone.  We learn how important it is to have strong British values alongside our strong Jewish identity. Our pupils and their families are a key part not only  of our school community but also the wider Jewish community.

Inspire

We inspire a love of learning – both Chol and Kodesh – that opens children’s minds and touches their souls. From Talmud Torah to science experiments, creative arts to Middot Tovot (good character traits), we encourage curiosity and enthusiasm. Our teachers model a passion for knowledge and a joy in exploring Hashem’s world, inspiring pupils to think deeply and dream big. We want to inspire our pupils and aim for them to in turn inspire others.

Grow

We enable each pupil to flourish and make progress from whatever their starting point is academically, socially, emotionally and spiritually. Growth is not just measured in milestones – it’s the journey of the whole child. We want every child to develop the confidence, skills and values they need to thrive at school and beyond.

Hasmonean Primary ranked in Top English State Primary Schools.

Welcome to Hasmonean Primary School! I am very proud to be the Headteacher at Hasmonean Primary School. It is a school that is steeped in history and was born from the legacy of Rabbi Dr Solomon Schonfeld, as part of the Jewish Secondary School Movement. The Movement was set up on the third night of Chanukah 1944 – hence the name Hasmonean and the origin of the school badge depicting the menorah. My aims are simple, I wish to ensure that Hasmonean continues to provide a high standard of education in both Chol and Kodesh ensuring that every child makes progress from whatever their starting point, that they enjoy being part of Hasmonean and feel safe and nurtured by our many wonderful and caring teachers. We encourage our children to be confident and caring individuals developing their resilience after what has been a challenging few years for us all.

We provide a high standard of education in both our Chol and Kodesh departments and aim to bring a joy of learning and creativity to both departments as well as providing specialist teachers in Music, Art and Design and Technology and Physical  Education. Our Curriculum is broad and exciting and our pupil voice where we hear from the pupils as to what they have learnt encourages us to further develop our subjects from Nursery to Year 6. Our guiding principle is “Torah Im Derech Eretz” and our staff are truly committed to bringing out the best in every child in their Torah and secular education as well as in their personal and social development.

Your children are unique. We feel privileged to be able to assist their development during their formative years and can assure you that we will do whatever we can to make their time here happy and successful.

At Hasmonean, we have a proud past and an even brighter future and I welcome you to come and visit our school.
