Sudbourne

What Sudbourne does

Sudbourne Primary School is a state-funded community primary school located in the London Borough of Lambeth, United Kingdom, serving children from Nursery (age 3) through Year 6 (age 11). The school operates within the Acre Schools Federation, sharing a unified 13-member governing board and an Executive Headteacher with Clapham Manor Primary School. It delivers the full English national curriculum — English, Mathematics, Science, Computing, Art, Design & Technology, Geography, History, Modern Foreign Languages (French from Year 3), Music (with instrumental tuition in violin, guitar, piano, drums and harp), PE, Religious Education and PSHE/RSHE — supplemented by a dedicated SEND provision, an Extended Day Care service and after-school enrichment clubs.

The school's curriculum stack relies on established third-party education platforms: CUSP (Curriculum with Unity Schools Partnership) for Science, History, Geography, Design & Technology and Art; Read Write Inc for phonics; Spelling Shed and MyOn for literacy; Jigsaw for PSHE; and the NCETM mastery approach for Mathematics. Computing provision uses iPads, laptops, Beebots, Probots, Easispeaks and digital microscopes, with internet filtering delivered through the London Grid for Learning (LGFL). Parent and community communications are routed through Arbor (letters, diary dates), Microsoft Sway (newsletters, most recent Edition 67) and social channels (Twitter, Facebook, Instagram), with website infrastructure provided by Juniper Education. Safeguarding infrastructure includes a Designated Safeguarding Lead, deputy DSLs, governor oversight and Prevent duty compliance.

The school's revenue model is public funding: as a Lambeth community school, it is financed through the local authority's per-pupil allocations rather than tuition fees, with limited ancillary income from extended day care, school meals and uniform sales via Wearabouts. Admissions are administered centrally by the London Borough of Lambeth under standard community-school criteria (looked-after children, sibling links, medical/social needs, distance). The website disclosure shows no commercial revenue, no funding rounds, no investors and no M&A activity.
