At Wolfson Hillel Jewish Primary School, our values are inspired by the words of Rabbi Hillel: “If I am not for myself, who will be for me? If I am only for myself, what am I? If not now, when?” These guiding principles underpin our commitment to both personal responsibility and care for others.
We nurture every child so that they thrive within a caring, inclusive and inspiring Jewish environment, where strong partnerships with families support a shared commitment to each child’s growth, personal development and success.
Our vision is to provide an ambitious, knowledge-rich curriculum that ignites curiosity, deepens understanding and fosters a lifelong love of learning. Through carefully sequenced teaching and rich experiences, we equip pupils with powerful knowledge, critical thinking skills and cultural capital, enabling them to thrive academically and beyond.
Rooted in Jewish values and tradition, we aim to cultivate in every child a strong sense of identity, belonging and spiritual connection. We empower pupils to become confident in their Jewish identity, respectful of others and prepared to take their place as thoughtful, responsible members of both the Jewish and wider British community.
In a safe, nurturing environment built on trust and respect, we strive to unlock each child’s full potential—supporting their spiritual, moral, intellectual, creative, social, emotional and physical development. Our pupils leave Wolfson Hillel as resilient, compassionate and knowledgeable individuals, ready for the next stage of their lives and inspired to make a positive contribution to the world.
Hillel Values
We run a rich values curriculum, based on the words of Rabbi Hillel.
Myself: If I am not for myself, who will be for me? אִם אֵין אֲנִי לִי-מִי לִי
My Relationships: If I am only for myself, what am I? וּכְשֶׁאֲנִי לְעַצְמִי מָה אֲנִי
My Future: And if not now, when? וְאִם לֹא עַכְשָׁיו אֵימָתָי
