Welcome to Benhurst Primary School

from the Head of School

We are a warm, inclusive two-form entry primary school where every child is encouraged to thrive. Our dedicated staff, wonderful children and supportive families work together to create a happy and caring school community. As part of the LIFE Education Trust, we work closely with schools across Havering and Essex and value the strong partnerships we have within our local community.

At Benhurst, we are committed to providing a high-quality education that develops the knowledge, skills and confidence children need to succeed in an ever-changing world. We encourage our pupils to be ambitious, resilient and respectful, and we are proud of our Core Values and our motto: “Only my best is good enough for me.” This website offers an insight into life at Benhurst and provides useful information for our families.

We warmly encourage visits to our school so that you can experience first-hand the welcoming and inclusive environment that makes Benhurst such a special place. To arrange a visit, or to request paper copies of any documents, please contact the School Office or email office@benhurst.havering.sch.uk. We look forward to welcoming you to our Benhurst community.
