Amazing Things Happen Here ... Brimpton Church of England Primary School serves the villages of Brimpton, Midgham, Crookham Common and the surrounding area. The school has strong links with the Parish Church and the local community. Founded in 1844 with land donated by the Earl of Falmouth, Brimpton School was rebuilt and enlarged in 1861.
By 1900 the school had become a National School with places for 94 Scholars and by the 1950s the school was extended to provide the present accommodation.
