The School
Chilton Foliat Primary School is situated on the edge of the beautiful village of Chilton Foliat. We are very close to the county boundary between Wiltshire and West Berkshire, about two miles from the market town of Hungerford and close to Junction 14 on the M4 (with easy access from any direction).
We are a vibrant village school, with numbers on the rise. The whole school team, governors and families are determined to enable our children to grow both as individuals and community members in the most enriched, creative, active and fulfilling primary school environment possible. We have a strong family and community ethos which we live out in acts and deeds. We love to get out and about and invite visitors in so that we can share our life experiences. We are proud of our “Growth Mindset” model of building resilience and independence in all that we do and our children love challenge and taking on new educational adventures.
We have undergone a programme of building development resulting in a purpose-built community club house and new classroom, as well as extended hall and bathroom facilities. We have completed the development of our Early Years Outside Area, working with Action for River Kennett (ARK) to include a rain garden and other environmentally supportive features. We are blessed with plenty of outside space, including our on-site forest school which allows children to run freely each day and to learn in an outdoor environment. We are also able to make use of these facilities each day with sport and recreation. Having our own kitchens allows us to provide healthy nutritional school meals easily for all the children and staff at the school. With our own off-road parking we offer a safe, secure drop off and pick up as well as a designated entrance for staff, parents and carers to access safely.
You are encouraged to look at our website to find out more about us and to read our most recent Ofsted Report (April 2025) and SIAMS Report (June2025). It is also strongly recommended that you make an appointment to visit and see for yourself what it could be like to be part of our fantastic and welcoming team. Please call the office on 01488 682630.
