Crabtree Junior School

Crabtree Junior School, located in the suburban town of Harpenden, Hertfordshire, is a mixed-gender primary academy catering to pupils aged 7 to 11. The school has a capacity for 256 students, with a current enrollment of 144 boys and 112 girls. Situated in a residential area, the school serves a community that highly values education, evident from a very low percentage of students eligible for free school meals (0.4%). Under the leadership of Headteacher Emma Simmons, the school emphasizes a supportive and inclusive environment. It offers a robust curriculum that includes a strong focus on the arts, sports, and special education needs (SEND) provisions. The school does not have a religious character, nursery classes, or a sixth form, maintaining a dedicated focus on primary education.
