We are a large Primary School within Bracknell Forest, with 620 pupils in KS1 and KS2, 90 pupils in Nursery. The school is located on a mature site and is well resourced, both internally and externally. The site has several playgrounds plus an adventure playground, climbing wall, hard court area and woodland play area and an all-weather synthetic pitch.  We also have access to a swimming pool and indoor sports hall, which is located next to the school site.

We are committed to working in partnership with parents and carers in our school to ensure children reach their full potential and succeed. Parents and pupils are proud of their school and are very supportive of our positive and welcoming ethos. This is reflected in the school being regularly oversubscribed.
