School

Welcome to Wootton Community Primary School!

Wootton Community Primary School is centrally situated between Ryde and Newport, meaning children at the school join us from the immediate locality and further afield. We are a one form entry school and have a capacity of 210 pupils. We have recently completed a whole school building refurbishment, which has modernised the school building and also added a new kitchen/food tech room for the children to use.

The old village school was built in 1873, and was originally located on New Road. The trustees were the Minister and Churchwardens of Arreton. It was an all-age school until it then became a County Primary school in 1953. The school then relocated to a purpose built, partly open plan building in 1969 on Church Road, which is where we are located today. We celebrated this 50^th Anniversary by doing a whole school sponsored walk to the old school site in June 2019.

The first PTA group was formed in 1967, two years before the school relocated to the new site. Since then, the PTA have been an active group, constantly thinking of new and exciting ways to raise funds for the school.
