We are a popular, well respected, school that supports children, parents, staff and governors working, living and learning together in our local community. We work strongly as a team, creating a supportive and challenging environment.
"Parents....said that learning is 'creative and exciting' and their children cannot wait to get to school. They very much appreciate the opportunities you and your staff give them to discuss their children's learning and well-being, and how all of you are always ready to listen and help.'" (Ofsted 2018)
We aim to make the years the children spend at Rockwood challenging, fulfilling and happy so that, by the time they move onto the next stage, they will be competent, confident learners who take pleasure and pride in their achievements.

A unique, sensory-rich, Victorian building set in extensive grounds;
Access to government-funded education of 15 and 30 hours per week for qualifying 2 - 4 year olds;
The school provides extended hours provision so that children can attend from 07:30am to 5:45pm weekdays, term time only.
