About Luckington Community School
Luckington Community School is a thriving and successful rural school, serving
the village of Luckington and the surrounding area. The school team works
closely with Luckington Pre-school, who share the site. We enjoy being at the
heart of the local community and benefit from very supportive parents, governors
and friends.
Originally a charming Victorian building, the school has been extended recently
to include a bright, modern hall and reception area and library. A new computer
suite was set up last year, with computers linked to the interactive Smart
Boards in both classes. The school has attractive outdoor space, with gardens,
play equipment and a quiet area. School lunches are freshly cooked each day by
the chef at The Old Royal Ship, the local pub, and served to the children in the
school hall.
The school has between 40 and 50 pupils in 2 classes: one Foundation Stage and
Key Stage 1 and another Key Stage 2.
There is a high adult: pupil ratio, with 2 full-time teachers, a High Level
Teaching Assist, another part time TA and a head teacher who teaches in both
classes. The staff are all passionate about teaching and learning and determined
to make the curriculum as creative as possible, whilst maintaining the highest
standards in core subjects.
Pupils are caring, very well-behaved and keen to learn.
Luckington links with other small
schools in the area for a variety of activities, such as sports tournaments,
music festivals and a residential visit.
