About Us
Potley Hill Primary School is located on a 50-acre wooded greenfield site in the Blackwater Valley. Frogmore Community Campus is the largest community campus in Hampshire and includes:
- Potley Hill Primary School (4-11)
- Frogmore Community College [11-18]
- Potley Hill pre-school
- Leisure Centre [with creche]
- 8th Bramshill Scouts
- Floodlit all-weather outdoor sports facilities
- Substantial on-site parking
Potley Hill caters for children from Reception (age 4 to 5) to Year 6 (age 11). Having been a 1 ½ form entry school, we are in the process of transitioning to a 1-form entry school where there will be 30 children in each year group.
Each classroom has an interactive whiteboard, and children have access to laptops and ipads which are used to support their learning. We have a well-equipped ICT suite which the children use regularly, a library bus which children borrow books from, a music room which is used for both class music lessons and peripatetic music lessons, a large food technology room where children regularly design and make their own food products, and a nurture room which is used for both ELSA sessions and nurture groups to support children’s emotional mental wellbeing. Two inner courtyards in the centre of our school provide a sensory courtyard, and a performance area with a small stage and bench seating.
We are fortunate to have large grounds which include three playgrounds, two fields which are used for playtimes and PE lessons, a pond and an outdoor learning area which is used for our Forest School lessons.
