Ofsted 2024 – What is it like to attend this school?
“Huntingdon Primary School is an inclusive school where pupils are happy. They are proud of the sense of care and community that permeates the school. Pupils respect each other and value the school’s culture ofcelebration irrespective of who you are. Parents and carers also appreciate the school’s nurturing ethos.”
