Why Haggai

Why families choose us

God-Centred Foundation

We train children to be taught of God, giving them a moral and spiritual compass alongside academics.

Self-Owned Learning

Our Nursery pupils learn to read sentences independently before moving on to Grade School: real ownership of their own learning.

Nelson Handwriting Scheme

Every pupil and teacher follows the Nelson handwriting scheme, for clear, confident, exceptional penmanship.

One Child, One Focus

A 1 to 3 teacher to pupil ratio, across 20 teaching staff holding Master’s, First Degree and NCE qualifications, means every child gets the attention needed to bring out their best.

School Bus Service

Buses convey pupils to and from school, so distance is never a barrier to a Haggai education.

Parent School Partnership

Regular forums, progress reports and open communication keep parents part of every child’s learning journey.

Testimonials

What parents & alumni say

“Before Haggai Zuriel, Adebayo struggled with reading comprehension. Within six months of joining the Nursery, his confidence soared. He’s now reading independently, and his love for books is truly inspiring. The Nelson handwriting has also made his writing incredibly neat. We couldn’t be prouder.”
