Stretton Handley Primary School is a small village school, with around 50 pupils, situated on the edge of the Peak district in Derbyshire close to Ogston Reservoir. We cater for children from 4 to 11 years of age, organised into three classes. We have three classrooms and a central, well-equipped hall. We also have hardcourt playgrounds and extensive grassed playing fields with trees and a pond.
The school, which is set in rural surroundings, has developed a local history/nature walk, “The Woolley Moor Trail“. This walk is enjoyed by many visitors to the area and an online version of the trail can be viewed on this web site.
“The overall percentage of your pupils achieving Level 4+, combined with excellent rates of progress in both English and mathematics place you amongst the top performing primary schools this year”
Minister of State for Schools, December 2012
