[H3] A warm welcome from the Head!
Apart from our enthusiastic, smiley children and wonderful, smiley staff, do you know the best thing about Roydon Primary School? It’s the fact that everyone who works here understands the essential link between learning and fun. I am so proud and privileged to work with such a talented group of people who make sure that each lesson is exciting and engaging for all those involved. You only have to walk round our school to see and hear good and outstanding teaching and learning taking place, or talk to our children to realise how much they enjoy their learning.
I am so pleased that you have found us online. We have all been working hard to keep our website up-to-date with all the busy and exciting things we do. We think that it gives a really good impression of what Roydon Primary School is all about, but don’t take our word for it. Do take some time to explore all the pages and links, and then come and visit us. We need to be seen to be believed!

[H3] Welcome to Starlings and Kestrels Classes
In February 2026, we were delighted to open our SHIP. Starlings (KS1) and Kestrels (KS2) provide additional support for children with SEND and co-occurring needs, such as neurodiversity, social, emotional and mental health needs and learning difficulties. We offer permanent placements until the end of each education phase, with the aim of supporting children to access and thrive within a mainstream setting.
Our classroom environments are carefully planned to meet the needs of our children with tailored support from highly trained staff. We work closely with our Specialist Partner, Chapel Green School in Attleborough, to support the needs of our children.
[H3] Our Curriculum Vision
At our Roydon SHIP, we aim to provide an enriching, engaging, and personalised curriculum that inspires a love of learning. We want every child to be confident, independent, and happy —motivated to learn and enthusiastic about being in school. 
Our approach is holistic, supporting the development of the whole child. We strive to create a nurturing environment where every child feels a strong sense of belonging and is given opportunities to engage meaningfully in mainstream school life. 
Our highly adaptive curriculum is tailored to meet individual needs, helping children build the skills they need to succeed both academically and personally. We place a strong emphasis on well-being, social communication, and positive learning behaviours. 
At the heart of our provision are our school values, which encourage resilience, self-esteem, and a lifelong love of learning.

Our vision for Roydon Primary School was developed by the values promoted by Tony Booth in his ‘Index for Inclusion’. Teaching and non-teaching staff, governors and children from School Council felt that these reflected the principles we hope to see in our school and wider community.
We were inspired to use the beautiful blossoming tree in our grounds to represent these values spreading throughout our school and overarching all that we do. Joy Holden, a talented local artist who worked at our school, translated our ideas in to this permanent display at the entrance to school.
Tony Booth promoted his ‘Index for Inclusion’ by walking the Boudicca Way, and Norfolk schools were invited to celebrate this. We chose to create Iceni style warrior shields incorporating the values that are personal to our families. The children were delighted to show Tony their shields when he called in to visit during his walk, and we were very proud that he included them in his book.

School Improvement

Roydon Primary is a ‘large for Norfolk’ primary school of over 260 pupils. There are four infant classes and six junior classes, all of which are mixed-age. While this is dictated by our intake number of 40, it does not mean that we do not enjoy and embrace the challenge of providing the very best education for our children, and our staff are particularly talented in meeting the needs of the range of abilities in their classes. We have thirteen teachers who work very closely to plan together to ensure equality of opportunity for children, no matter which class they are in.
We have four HLTAs who do a fantastic job of leading the learning of classes and groups across the school. Our fabulous teaching assistants work with groups and individuals and have a wide range of talents and specialisms that meet the needs of children in all phases of our school. Their deployment is reviewed by the Senior Management Team every half-term to ensure that current issues can be addressed and particular challenges resolved.
[IMG: Roydon Primary School]
Our office staff are indispensable and are continually complimented for their ability to keep the school running smoothly, five premises staff keep our school spick and span, and safe, two part-time librarians encourage good reading habits, and eleven midday supervisory assistants (dinner ladies!) keep our children happy and safe at lunchtimes.
As with many rural schools, ours is made up of buildings of varied ages. Begun in the 1890s, the latest additions were completed in 2019. The school grounds are extensive with an all-weather play space (“The Green”) and a huge field area.
Keeping at the cutting edge of technology is a priority for us and, as such, the school is well-resourced. There are laptops available to pupils throughout the school and there is a 5- or 6-point Touchscreen in each classroom. We use our iPads to support children’s learning across the curriculum, and we share our knowledge and discoveries regularly, as a staff and among the Digital Leaders. The Digital Leaders have, in fact, led INSET for teachers! However, we acknowledge that schools can never stand still or become complacent, and we are continually looking for ways that we can stay ahead of the game.
