What Petersfield Infant School does

Petersfield Infant School is a UK state-funded maintained infant school located at St Peters Road in the centre of Petersfield, Hampshire (GU32 3HX). It operates as a four-form-entry institution serving children aged 4-7 across Reception (Year R), Year 1, and Year 2, with an estimated cohort of 180-240 pupils. The school delivers the full English National Curriculum at Key Stage 1 together with Early Years Foundation Stage programming in Reception, supplemented by enrichment activities such as Eco School, Online Safety education, sports premium activities, and structured pupil leadership roles including School Council, New Arrival Ambassadors, and Playground Wizards.

The school is led by Headteacher Mrs Crissy Hodgkinson under the governance of Hampshire County Council and a board of governors. Its core stated values are Resilience, Kindness, and Respect, anchored by the 'Be the best you can be' ethos. The institution does not generate commercial revenue: education is provided free to pupils, and the school's funding flows from UK government and Hampshire County Council education budgets. Optional paid services include school lunches, the Dawn to Dusk Club wraparound care, and PISA Icepop Friday activities. Marketing and parent engagement are conducted through the school website (built on the Greenhouse School Websites platform), a Facebook page, regular newsletters, a public calendar with iCal feed, Ofsted reports, and scheduled prospective-parent tours.

Technology usage is limited to standard off-the-shelf tools: Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager for website analytics, Google Translate for accessibility, Vimeo/YouTube for embedded video content, and curriculum tools ScratchJr (computing) and Chrome Music Lab (music). The school is GDPR- and CCPA-compliant with a privacy policy last updated 30 April 2024. Admissions for the September 2027 Reception intake are open, with four scheduled tour dates between October 2026 and January 2027.
