From the Park Mead Primary School
I'd like to extend a hearty welcome to you on behalf of all the students, parents, governors, and staff at Park Mead Primary School. Park Mead's expansive grounds back onto farmland and offer views of the lovely Sussex countryside. It is located in the charming community of Upper Dicker, East Sussex. "In perfect harmony, we will encourage greatness and an enduring love of learning." A wide field with two trim pathways, two playgrounds, a classroom for nurture and life skills, a vegetable garden, and a pond are just a few of the excellent amenities the school has to offer. The school also enjoys the advantages of a sizable, well-equipped hall, roomy classrooms, and group spaces. We can utilise Bede's amenities, which include a wonderful sports arena and swimming pool among others. The governing body is very helpful and collaborates closely with the school. The school welcomes parents and encourages them to participate in their children's education. The "Friends" of Park Mead, a strong and proactive parent organisation, successfully raises thousands of pounds each year to fund our kids' education. If you would like to know more about our school then please contact our school receptionist, Mrs Rushton who will be happy to answer your questions or arrange an appointment for you to meet with us and view the school. We are excited to have you and your child visit our lovely school.
