All Hamwic pupils receive a high quality, enriching, learning experience in a safe and inclusive environment, which promotes excellence through a broad curriculum that prepares them for their future and opens doors to a diverse array of opportunities.

‘All about the child’

We put the child at the heart of everything we do. We believe that by doing this, it drives our ethos and values to do the best we can for our children.
