What The Good Schools Guide says..
Hidden away off a small country lane, surrounded by orchards but only a mile or so from the senior school, it is part of the Sutton Valence family but also very much a school in its own right with its own playing fields and athletics track but access to the senior school facilities. School has a relaxed atmosphere but high expectations inside and outside the classroom and a strong sense of community where differences are celebrated.
What the school says...
SVPS is on a fine, safe rural site where the children enjoy a full and wide-ranging curriculum, which focuses on academic achievement, developing a community with high standards and respect for themselves and others, as well as giving opportunties to succeed outside of the classroom. We have a very successful record at entry to our senior school, Sutton Valence and other independent and local grammar schools.

Its a happy place!' ...Read more
