Spaldwick School
New Principal for Hinchingbrooke School
Within Spaldwick, we’re delighted to have both Playtimes Playgroup and Spaldwick Community Primary School, which were both rated as ‘outstanding’ in their recent Ofsted inspections.
Hinchingbrooke School – which is the senior school for children in Spaldwick – has just announced the appointment of a new Principal – Andrew Goulding. Andrew has been Headmaster of Bishop’s Stortford High School, which was judged ‘outstanding’ in the most recent Ofsted inspection, and is a national lead school for both Mathematics and ICT.
In its recent Ofsted inspection, Hinchingbrooke School was rated ‘good’ with outstanding features, so we wish Andrew well in driving further progress, so that all schools available to Spaldwick children are deemed outstanding.
Spaldwick School: Youths caught on CCTV
In the early hours of Wednesday 1st September, a group of young people were recorded on CCTV, within the school grounds. Members of the group climbed onto the school roof, damaging the TV aerial, and completely snapped off a metal chimney.
The group also set light to a domestic wheelie bin within the school grounds, close to wooden fencing and the school oil supply. Within the remains of the wheelie bin were found burnt aerosol cans.
Police are viewing the high-resolution CCTV images to identify those responsible. If you have any information please contact PCSO Anna Holder on 0345 4564564.

Thank you to everyone that supported the event, and thank you to Spaldwick Social Group for organising the event.
