Information about the school

Hever Primary is a one-form entry, over-subscribed Voluntary Aided church school situated in a beautiful village on the borders of Kent, Surrey and Sussex and two miles from the market town of Edenbridge. The school covers a broad catchment area of both rural and town environments.

We are a nurturing school with high expectations, where wellbeing and high standards of academic achievement go hand in hand. We pride ourselves on knowing our children and ensuring they reach their potential. Our children benefit from beautiful grounds in a lovely setting, with a large sports field and forest school. The school is well-supported by parents and Governors, and our children are motivated and keen to learn.

Over the last two years, we have undergone a transformation from RI to securely good, through collaboration and consistency, underpinned by a shared vision. Our Ofsted and SIAMS reports (both autumn 2024) reflect the impact of relationships between adults and pupils that are ‘full of warmth and mutual respect’ and adults who are ‘consistent role models in kindness and working together as a team’.
