Rendelsham Primary School is a small rural school with a community focus. Students come from Rendelsham, its surrounding farm area and the nearby fishing township of Southend. Its rural setting offers a peaceful, welcoming ambience. Buildings and grounds are clean and well-maintained with recent and proposed redevelopments. Relationships with the community are strong and the school is supported by an active governing council and parent club. The school is regarded for the high expectations it maintains and the quality of the students who move on to high school. There is a strong focus on literacy and numeracy across the curriculum. Information and Communication Technology (ICT) features in teaching and learning with an interactive whiteboard in each classroom, access for all students to computers in classes and a central pod in the well-equipped resource centre. The dedicated staff are intent on delivering a balanced curriculum and have written their own curriculum support documents, which help to cater for classes with two or more year levels. 'Proud of our children - Proud of our school' is our focus for the development of students who are happy, achieving their best, and well-equipped for the future.
