The school delivers the standard UK primary National Curriculum with a focus on whole-child development, including arts, sports, music, religious education, and PSHE, following Hampshire's locally agreed syllabus for RE.

The school is governed by a body comprising parent governors, co-opted governors, staff governors, and local authority representatives, chaired by Jana Murray. It maintains deep community ties with the Church of St Peter and St Paul, Hambledon Pre-school, the PTA (Friends of Hambledon), the Parish Council, and local societies.
