Where do children in Fovant go to school?

 

Fovant village is very well placed for education provision in all directions of the compass and across the age groups from pre-school right up to further education and 6th form. 

 

Pre-school and Nursery

 

Nurseries within a 5-mile radius of the village include the ‘Outstanding’ settings of Dinton Pre-school  and Filthy Squirrels at Fifield Bavant but there are many other options in Wilton, Salisbury and the surrounding villages.

Primary Education                                                            

 

Although the Fovant Village School closed in 1997, the nearby primary school at Dinton has become the catchment school for Fovant children and there is a free school bus from the village at both ends of the day.

​

Dinton Primary School is a small school with a friendly, family atmosphere and a wonderfully strong community identity.  The wide curriculum allows children to succeed at sports and in the arts, in spite of small numbers.

Now part of the Acorn Education Trust, Dinton Primary has been consistently graded as a ‘Good’ school by Ofsted over the last 15 years and results continue to reflect this.

 

There are other Primary Schools at Broadchalke, Chilmark, Wilton, Wardour and beyond, which gives parents a genuine choice.
