Eastbury Farm Primary School

What Eastbury Farm Primary School does

Eastbury Farm Primary School is a UK state-funded primary school located on Bishops Avenue in Northwood, Hertfordshire (HA6 3DG). It delivers a continuous educational programme from Nursery through Year 6 (ages roughly 3-11), structured across the Early Years Foundation Stage, Key Stage 1, and Key Stage 2, with statutory RSHE, phonics (Read Write Inc), maths, English, science, Spanish, Forest School outdoor learning, and Years 3-4 instrumental music tuition forming the core curriculum. The school's technology stack is built on standard third-party educational platforms — Juniper Websites for the public site, SchoolGateway for parent communication and payments, SchoolGrid for scheduling, and learning tools including MyMaths, Times Tables Rock Stars, SPAG.com, Oak Academy and Epic Books.

The business model is government-funded: the majority of revenue flows from Hertfordshire County Council via the national funding formula on a per-pupil basis, with ancillary income generated from school dinners, wraparound care, music lessons, uniform sales, community lettings, and a Holiday Club run by Fun Fest. Core education is provided free at the point of delivery. The customer base is geographically concentrated in the Northwood catchment area, with a notable specialization in serving children of British Armed Forces personnel via partnerships with Northwood HQ, Little Troopers, and The Diana Award (active since 2015). Additional wellbeing differentiation is delivered through the Stormbreak mental health movement programme and the Zones of Regulation curriculum. The school is led by Headteacher Miss Workman, operates as a maintained primary under Hertfordshire County Council governance, and is not a commercially traded entity.
