Welcome to the Junior School & Nursery

At Claremont Junior School, we care deeply about every child who joins us. We recognise the responsibility parents entrust to us, and we take pride in supporting each pupil on their unique educational journey. No two children are the same, which is why our approach is creative, flexible and nurturing. We provide an environment where curiosity is celebrated, voices are heard, and children feel confident to aim high, both in and out of the classroom. Our Junior School is made up of two distinct parts: Fan Court, home to our Pre-Nursery through to Year 2 pupils, and Stable Court, where children continue their journey from Year 3 to Year 6. With access to exceptional facilities, some shared across the whole school and specialist teaching in dedicated spaces, our pupils enjoy a carefully designed experience that builds independence, resilience and confidence. We believe that learning comes not just from success, but also from the mistakes along the way. That’s why we encourage determination, resilience and a spirit of adventure, preparing children to embrace every opportunity to learn about themselves, others and the wider world. It is a privilege to lead such a vibrant community, and my team and I look forward to welcoming you to Claremont.
