From the Burghclere Primary School
We are a successful rural primary school located in the North Hampshire community of Burghclere. This website seeks to introduce you to the institution while also regularly updating information for both parents and students. The majority of the school's original buildings, which date back to 1838, are still in operation. We are extremely fortunate to have a school that blends both Victorian structures and cutting-edge amenities with a history of being at the centre of the neighbourhood. The library, a large computing suite, and four contemporary classrooms are all located in the main building. The school includes a huge playing field, areas of plantation and outdoor recreational equipment, and a fantastic outdoor learning space with raised beds and a fire-pit. It also offers an incredible creative outdoor area for EYFS students. Physical education (P.E. ), assemblies, band practise, and a dining hall are all held in a huge hall. Most kids receive a cooked meal from the connected kitchen servery. In order to build critical-thinking, collaborative, independent, creative, and individual learners in a secure, joyful, loving, and engaging environment, we believe in offering the highest levels of accomplishment and outstanding education. a setting that values both children and adults and fosters learning and "growing" together in an atmosphere of tolerance and respect. We sincerely hope you enjoy browsing our website and discover any information you're looking for. Any questions you may have can be directed to the school directly.
