When children encounter new experiences, their aspirations grow. We broaden horizons by nurturing interests and expanding understanding of the world. We celebrate that learning is broad, exciting and limitless, encouraging every child to be ambitious in all they do.
At Hotwells, we value individuality and creativity. Working with our local community, we celebrate the Arts and encourage imagination and creative thinking across all areas of learning, supporting children to problem-solve in innovative ways.
We nurture pride and respect in our children for themselves, their school and others. As a small, welcoming and community-minded school, we value strong relationships and intergenerational links within the Hotwells community.
We help children understand and appreciate the wider world beyond their community. At Hotwells, we celebrate the ‘big wide world in our small school’, valuing diversity, inclusivity and respect for others.
I want to extend a warm welcome to you from everyone at Hotwells Primary School. I hope you enjoy exploring our website and getting to know our school. We are a school that is led with warmth and kindness and we firmly believe that having strong relationships with our children and families leads to the best outcomes for all.
We love to meet new families so please do get in touch if you'd like to find out more.

Our budding little bakers in Reception and Year 1 finished the term by making some little gingerbread men - just like the character in the book they've been reading. The children enjoyed the smells of the ginger and cinnamon spices and enjoyed eating their finished creations even more! #WeAreAmbitous #WeAreCreative #HotwellsPrimarySchool #SmallButMighty #EYFS
