Welcome to Montpelier Primary School

Montpelier is a well-established and highly regarded school in Ealing. Visitors always notice the caring, safe, and friendly environment which is enhanced by children’s enthusiasm for learning in the classrooms and beyond and is underpinned by our vision. Everything the school does, including its staff, governors, parents, and carers, focuses upon the best educational experience for children through a curriculum which is broad, balanced, and challenging.

Teachers continuously develop a curriculum which has reading at its heart and our ambitions are achieved through working in partnership with parents and carers. Montpelier is proud to be a truly international school, attracting families and is always over-subscribed. The views of parents and carers, past and present, affirm that education here is of a high quality. Montpelier is known as a school that supports teaching and leadership locally and nationally and this, in turn, improves our own work here.

BASICS Philosophy: Belonging, Aspiration, Safety Identity, Challenge, Success

Vision, Values & Ethos

Montpelier’s values are firmly based upon the BASICS. We believe that belonging, aspiration, safety, identity, challenge, and success have relevance to all children, staff, and the school community at different stages.

For children, a sense of belonging can range from being part of a family or finding one’s place outside of it, through to classes, the school, friendships, and teams.

As children become young people their sense of belonging takes on new meaning and it will, as before, be intertwined with identity, aspirations, safety, challenges, and successes, all in forms that are specific to individuals.

Our ethos is one of inclusion and the actions of adults to maintain a focus upon this. Support and focused challenge are central to the school’s ethos in order that learning and achievement for all can be maximised. When the school’s ethos is felt by our children and led by our staff, we know the outcome is happiness and success.

Parent Testimonials

My children joined Montpelier in year 3 and year 1 after we moved to London from India. They settled in very quickly and made lasting friendships. The teaching has been exceptional and they have both made good progress. The school communicates very effectively with parents and pupils pass out in year 6 as confident, aware individuals.

Our time at Montpelier School has been crowned by many successes thanks to an outstanding academic programme delivered by a faculty of uniquely trained and highly motivated teachers fully committed to supporting every child reach his or her full potential. Watching our son mature over the past eight years has been revelatory and although he has worked hard to be a high performer, we owe much to Montpelier School and the disciplines and values that they have inculcated in him from an early age. We are confident that the foundation offered by MPS will serve him well in the years to come and are fortunate to have been a part of the school.

Thanks to the Montpelier Staff Team and the Year 6 Team. They have all done a wonderful job, especially during the pandemic. The top priority is always the wellbeing of the children. My three children have each left Montpelier feeling confident, happy and content with who they are. The school has always tried to tailor their education and tried to get the best out of them as individuals by supporting their areas of weakness and affirming their areas of strength. As a parent, it has been a privilege to be a part of the school community. The best thing about Montpelier, for me, is the vibrant multiculturalism, underpinned by mutual respect, that celebrates the variety of cultures, religions and backgrounds within the school community. I think this is what really enhances the learning experience for our children and sets Montpelier above many other schools in the area.

My experience of Montpelier Primary School has always been extremely positive. My own children attended the school a couple of decades ago and more recently my grandchildren have been attending. They all have fond memories of this school. The staff members are friendly, supportive, enthusiastic and very helpful and the pupils thrive from this. I have borne personal witness to the progress and development that my grandchildren have made since joining Montpelier Primary School from another school in the borough and this is certainly due to the headmaster and the wonderful teachers and staff who go over and beyond the call of duty to ensure that children benefit from a very high standard of teaching. I am very grateful to all the Montpelier Primary School team for all their hard work and support.

The experience at nursery was amazing for my kid (now in year 2) reception Y1 and Y2 so far have been incredible, he has received so much positive reinforcement that has kept him very motivated and committed to his learning. As it progresses I hope it continues, as he does not respond under strict schemes, the teachers have been encouraging and fair acknowledging everyone's efforts particularly his teacher in year 2. Now on the other hand I have a Y6 leaving, she had some incredible teachers along the way, she has now build up her confidence and has reached a good level of maturity. The school has given her the tools to move onto the next stage. We are very proud of what she has achieved but we know we owe great deal of that to the teachers and the incredibly supportive staff at Montpelier school.
Parent of Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 pupils
All three of my children attended Montpelier Primary School for the whole of their primary school careers. We have always been impressed by the organisation of the school and the dedication of its staff. Whilst the school has high academic standards, the students are encouraged to learn through play and activity and all my children thoroughly enjoyed their time there. There is also a strong family community around the school, which has always further boosted the school experience for all my children.
