Welcome

Welcome to Laycock Primary School, in Islington.
Children have just one childhood; we believe their primary school experience should be magical and wondrous, filled with inspirational and unforgettable learning experiences.

Laycock Primary is a wonderful place to be and fantastic place to learn. I am extremely proud of the children and have high expectations of all of them. Children from all over the world, from a range of backgrounds, enjoy each other’s company in a way that only children can.

Laycock Primary is home to a sixty eight place resource for deaf children, which is currently one of the largest resources for deaf education within England. We are committed to providing a rich, creative and challenging primary education for all.

We hope you enjoy our website and learn more about our school and the shared commitment we ALL have to providing the very best for the children, families and the wider community.

Provision for Deaf Children

Our approach to teaching is auditory/oral. The children use spoken English to communicate and make maximum use of their hearing to access spoken language. All of our classes for Deaf children are sound proofed to minimise background noise while the children wear radio aids to enable them to hear the teachers more clearly.

EYFS

We have a stimulating and well-resourced setting and experienced staff who create a nurturing and highly engaging space for our Nursery and Reception children. We offer part time and full time places for 3 and 4 years olds. We also have breakfast and after school clubs for our reception children.
