Executive Headteacher's Welcome

Nestled on the edge of the stunning Peak District and in the heart of ‘Summer Wine’ country, our school is proud to serve a vibrant community that values education and lifelong learning.

At Hinchliffe Mill, we are committed to giving every child aged 4–11 the best possible start. Our aim is simple: to provide exceptional opportunities that nurture curiosity, confidence, and resilience, preparing children for an ever-changing world. We believe strong partnerships with families and the wider community are key to success, and we value the support you give in helping your child thrive.

Our school values guide everything we do. We encourage honesty, respect, clear communication, responsibility, and teamwork, while fostering confidence and resilience. Through high-quality teaching and an ambitious curriculum enriched with real-world experiences, we ensure children develop the knowledge, skills, and understanding they need for life.

We are passionate about learning beyond the classroom, whether through community involvement, sustainability projects, or diverse cultural experiences. Above all, we want every child to feel happy, safe, and inspired during their time with us.

As Executive Headteacher, I feel privileged to lead such a dedicated team, all committed to delivering the very best education for your child.

Come and visit us, you’ll see for yourself what makes Hinchliffe Mill such a special place to learn and grow.
