Our latest Ofsted rating

Following our inspection in May 2024 we are thrilled to share we have been graded ‘Outstanding’ in all areas. The exceptional report concludes that at Highgate Primary, ‘all pupils receive an excellent education’. It also states that ‘pupils at Highgate Primary are enthusiastic learners who enjoy coming to school each day,’ it recognises their love of learning and concludes that ‘children are rightly proud of their school’. We could not be more proud of our school.

Visitors to Highgate Primary always comment on the school’s unique atmosphere where happy children engage positively in all aspects of school life. I strongly believe the most important thing primary education can give children is a deep love of learning, after all, it is what children go on to achieve in life and the values they hold that really matters. Please come and visit us and discover our wonderful school for yourself.
