Mandeville Primary School
Learning, Caring & Achieving Together
Welcome to the Mandeville Primary School website. Here you will find useful information about our school and see how much we have to celebrate.
In February 2024 Mandeville was graded Outstanding in all areas by Ofsted - you can find the full report here . Our goal is to give all of our children an outstanding education, which allows each child to develop and succeed. We aim to foster a life-long love of learning and equip our children to be successful in the 21st century, through a creative and dynamic approach to learning that is engaging, challenging and fun.
We are very proud of our school and our wider community and have grown together to provide an amazing curriculum for all Mandeville children. We are always looking for new ways to improve and move forward and we work together with parents, carers, staff, governors, children and other stakeholders to ensure that we are constantly developing. We are fortunate to also be federated with Kingsmead, Gayhurst and Grasmere primary schools as part of the LEAP Federation; we have one governing body and one Executive Head who leads all four schools. This partnership allows us to share professional knowledge, expertise and resources, which benefits the communities of all three schools. We are delighted that this effective and successful close partnership has led to three of the LEAP schools being graded Outstanding by Ofsted
We hope you find what you are looking for here. If not or if you have any further questions please do get in touch with us. We are always happy to help.

MANDEVILLE CHOIR AT THE LANG LANG GALA The Mandeville Primary School choir took to the stage on Wednesday, 8th October, performing at an exclusive gala concert-dinner in Park Lane, central London, at a fundraising event for the Lang Lang International Music Foundation UK. @langlangfoundation @langlangpiano 'Music Heals' was a celebration of the power of music to connect, engage and inspire children from all cultures and backgrounds to the transformative power of music, and celebrate the work of the Lang Lang Foundation in the United Kingdom. Alongside Mandeville Choir there were performances from the world-famous pianist and foundation founder, Lang Lang, plus renowned musician Jools Holland and rising scholars from the foundation's Young Scholars Programme. The Mandeville choir opened the show with a stirring rendition of Adele's hit, Rolling in the Deep, which was received with rapturous applause by the guests assembled for the evening's entertainment. The opportunity for Mandeville's choir to perform at the gala arose from the school's partnership with the Lang Lang International Music Foundation's 'Keys of Inspiration' initiative; an innovative project using a state-of-the-art piano lab and digital learning platform, donated by the Foundation, to enable the school to deliver to whole-class piano lessons. Music is central to the LEAP Federation's offer to children across all our schools. Mandeville's school choir, formed in 2024, provides an opportunity for pupils aged between 7 and 11, who have a passion for singing, to develop their skills and perform together. Participating children, chosen through auditions, meet for weekly rehearsals to learn repertoire from a range of musical traditions and cultures. *more photos to follow
Justin Thompson Project: The Story of My Name As a school we are sharing and celebrating the stories of our names. Please take some time this weekend to share the story of their name with your child. Some questions below to help with the conversation. Who chose your name and why? Does it have a meaning? Was it always like this or has it changed? Do people sometimes pronounce or write your name in a wrong way? Do you like your name? Is there a different way of writing/pronouncing your name in another language? Is there a story connected to your name? We will be having a few children discuss the project and the findings of this in an exhibition on Thursday 23rd October 2025.
Is your child 2, 3 or 4 years old?
Did you know that you are entitled to free nursery childcare provision?
