St Andrew’s CE Primary School is a co-educational day
school administered by Shropshire County Education
Committee, in the Diocese of Lichfield.
St Andrew’s caters for pupils between the ages of 4+ and
11, in a 1960’s open plan building set in attractive
grounds. In addition to the extensive playing fields, there
are formal gardens and an environmental area which is
used as an outdoor classroom. The main building has 10
large classrooms for KS1/2, a large hall, library/computer
suite and dining room. In order to cater for our expanding
numbers a new detached 2 class EYFS unit was built in
2019 giving the youngest children an inspiring home. An
additional demountable building erected in 2013 provides
a quieter area for a range of activities for smaller groups,
and also a nurture room for pastoral support. The former caretaker’s bungalow is used for
peripatetic music sessions out of earshot of the main school. Also on-site is a private pre-school
nursery and after school provision operating between 8am and 6pm for 48 weeks of the year.
