We are delighted that you are thinking about Hotwells Primary School for your child! Located at the heart of our community, Hotwells is a friendly and caring school where every child is known, appreciated, and encouraged to flourish.  Although we are a small village school in the city centre, we are always looking to welcome new pupils and their families to join our vibrant school community.

If you are a parent considering Hotwells Primary School, here’s a fun summary of why we believe this is the perfect choice for your child:

  • Fantastic Academic Results: We consistently rank among the top schools in Bristol for end of Key Stage 2 SATs results, currently at #5 in the Government league tables for 2025. (Click here to find out more.) 
  • Inclusive Education: We are proud to be the only non-religious school option in the area. We serve all faiths and none. 
  • No Uniform: Children can express themselves and be comfortable in their own clothes.
  • Nurturing Environment: Older pupils love to engage with and support the younger years.
  • Strong Community Spirit: We are deeply linked with local life and enjoy inter-generational activities.

We hope you have had a chance to visit our school and liked what you saw! If you haven’t had a visit yet, please get in touch. We would be more than happy to give you a tour!
