Radley C of E Primary School is a small, friendly village school with some 160 pupils aged age 3 to 11 with six classes and a Nursery, with an Ofsted rating of Good.
The school has recently undergone an expansion which means that each year group that starts at the school from September 2022 onward will consist of up to 30 places, eventually making a maximum total of 210 pupils from Reception to Year 6 across the whole school. The Primary school also has a nursery taking children aged 3 to 4.
Based on Christian values, Radley Church of England Primary School is a happy, vibrant and exciting place to learn, where the children make them proud of their responsible, positive and caring attitudes every day. They are committed to providing exciting and inspiring teaching and promote growth mindsets and a love of learning to enable all the children to thrive. They are also proud of the sense of family the school environment provides, and have strong links with the church, local community, as well as a flourishing partnership with Radley College.
A group of parents and carers from the school volunteer their time for the Friends of Radley Primary School (FoRPS) charity, which is a fundraising committee arranging events and activities to raise funds for various projects and resources to benefit Radley C of E Primary school and the families that attend.
The school is next to the parish church of St James the Great and occupies a site given to it by Miss Bowyer in the 1870s. The original school building is still used and will be renovated into a library for the school children to enjoy. It stands next to the School House, a much older half-timbered cottage, which is owned by the church and was once the home of the head teacher.
Term dates, admission procedures and other useful information are given on the school’s website Radley C of E Primary School and on the Education and Learning pages of the Oxfordshire County Council’s website.
