Our School

Surlingham Primary is a small and friendly primary school situated just five miles south of Norwich close to the River Yare. The main building, which houses two classes, is Victorian, and has and additional building which houses  EYFS, Year 1 and Year 2 classrooms situated next to the main building. The school is set in the heart of the village with most pupils at the school come from within the village and increasingly from Norwich and other surrounding areas.

The grounds give plenty of opportunity to keep bodies active as well as minds and we are lucky that we have a very large field and inner playground, perfect for our sporting activities and popular outdoor learning lessons.

The school prides itself in knowing all the children well and making sure that each child is happy in their work and challenged to learn to their full potential. As a result the atmosphere in school is relaxed and positive, and contributes to the high level of attainment and standards of behaviour at the school.

We believe that providing a secure environment where children are listened to and contribute to the running of the school helps them develop into responsible adults. At Surlingham we have active School  Eco councils who meet regularly and work hard to make life at school even better. We try and make every child’s experience of school enriching, and offer everyone the opportunity to learn a musical instrument and attend a sports club, as well as offering a range of after school activities.

If you need any information or a paper copy of our policies, please contact the school office at office@sps.set.education. We look forward to welcoming you to Surlingham.
