Welcome from our Interim Headteacher, Esther Payne
‘Welcome to Elmwood Infant School
Elmwood is a welcoming, friendly and diverse Infant school in West Croydon, where children are happy and love to learn. At Elmwood we are proud of the diversity of our community and take all opportunities to celebrate our similarities and differences. We are a highly inclusive school and staff work as a team to maintain high expectations for all children.
We are a Gold Level Rights Respecting school, where children learn about their rights and are encouraged to be the best they can possibly be in their learning and behaviour.
A quote from our recent OFSTED inspection captures the ethos of Elmwood.
Pupils are happy and proud members of the Elmwood community. Each pupil’s uniqueness is valued. Diversity is celebrated throughout the school. Pupils feel safe here and are kept safe. This is because of the warm and nurturing relationships between staff and pupils.
