Foxton Primary School is a small, friendly and welcoming school at the heart of the village community. The classrooms are large and airy, and we have a number of additional spaces for smaller group work. We are fortunate to have a large outdoor area with grass, extensive play equipment and a sports field which is used for PE lessons and community sporting events.
Throughout a child's time at Foxton Primary School, we encourage a love of learning through the children's natural curiosity and self-belief. We aim to enable our children to become confident and independent so they are prepared for new experiences they encounter throughout their childhood. We are very proud of our school and have a strong, supportive staff team.
