Hinton St George Church of England Primary School
‘Let Your Light Shine’ (Matthew 5:16)
Hinton St George Church of England Primary School is a dynamic, progressive Church of England Primary School located in the beautiful village of Hinton St George. The school currently caters for children aged between 4 and 10 years old (to 11 years old from September 2021 due to recent conversion from a First School to a Primary School) and serves a community of families covering the rural parishes of Hinton St George, Dinnington and Lopen. The school also has an excellent Pre-School on site catering for children aged 2 to 4 years old.
The school enjoys a rural setting with all of our classes based in the original, renovated Victorian school building. The grounds to the rear of the school include a well-stocked and fun playground along with a creative outdoor learning space for our early year’s provision. We have a large school playing field with play equipment, a stage and an area for forest school activities.
We have dedicated staff and governors who provide a happy, caring and stimulating environment in which each child feels secure and valued as an individual. We are fortunate to enjoy a high staff to pupil ratio where teaching and non-teaching staff all work together to provide an exciting education in safe and pleasant surroundings. All our children are actively encouraged to realise their full potential and to fulfil our school motto to be “the best that we can be”. We also have close links and work collaboratively with other local schools.
Achievement at all levels throughout the curriculum is valued and recognised; good behaviour, aspiration, high standards and a sense of personal and social responsibility are clearly promoted and expected. We enjoy strong links with our local community, including St George’s Church, and endeavour to work closely with our parents. This is demonstrated by our active and generous PFA, who tirelessly raise funds to improve our school and provide exciting opportunities for our children.
We look forward to welcoming you to our school.
