Hogarth Primary School was established in 1982 on the amalgamation of the original Hogarth Infant and Junior Schools. The accommodation consists of eight classrooms, an ICT suite, a large assembly hall and kitchens and a purpose built Foundation Stage Unit. The school buildings are set in very pleasant, wooded grounds with good sized playgrounds, quiet areas and large playing fields. The gardens are always well kept with flowers, which are planted and attended to by our children. In 2003 the school received a commendation for the care of its grounds by the 'Brentwood in Bloom' competition.
Status & Character: Primary School & Foundation Stage Unit (Boys and Girls 4-11 years)		Number of pupils on roll: 223 Number of children intended to admit: 34

We aim for every child to be an accepted and respected member of the school community. We aim for every child to achieve their potential, both academically and socially.
