Dear Parents,

Welcome to Manorfield Primary and Nursery School website.

I hope that you find our website interesting and informative and that it provides you with a real flavour of life at Manorfield.

Manorfield has been open since 2004, and in a short space of time has developed into a thriving, lively and popular school. Children can stay with us from the term after they are 3 years old, until they are 11. We are the only school in Horley to be able to offer 8 years of continuous schooling. Thanks to very generous funding from Surrey County Council, the whole school has been extensively rebuilt and modernised. There is a purpose-built early years unit for our 3 to 5 year olds, a new library and study area, modern ICT Suite, interactive whiteboards throughout the school and beautiful and extensive grounds which have been developed to promote outdoor learning.

At Manorfield, all of the staff take a great pride in working in a fully inclusive school, where all children, irrespective of ability, are welcomed. Children make good progress throughout the school, both in the basic skills of reading, writing and mathematics but also in all of the equally important foundation subjects. The children are also well cared for and every effort is made to help them feel safe and secure. The school has recently been awarded the National Healthy Schools Award, and we are currently awaiting a decision on our application for a Green Flag Eco-Schools award.

This website, which is updated regularly, gives you details of each of the year groups, together with reports from the school council and information about extra-curricular activities. It also provides links to our prospectus, parent handbook and latest Ofsted report.

Manorfield is a very exciting place to work and it is a great privilege for me as Headteacher to lead such a wonderful school. If you would like to know more about the school, or arrange for a visit, please contact the school's office.

Yours sincerely,
