The Horsell Village School is a 3 form Infant School based in Horsell, Woking. It is part of The SWAN Trust which incorporates 10 schools within the Woking area. The schools work closely together and aim to support each other through purposeful collaboration that enhances educational opportunities and supports improvements in the quality of learning for all our children.

All schools within The SWAN Trust warmly welcome children, families, governors and staff from diverse backgrounds within the Woking community. The schools within The Trust aim to ensure that every child feels safe and happy in school creating a culture where they can grow and develop.

The Horsell Village School is a community school for children aged four to seven. It is situated in the heart of the village opposite the Church of St. Mary the Virgin and was built as a school in 1851. The school celebrated 170 years of teaching in 2021. Over the decades the building has been sensitively extended, and today the school houses nine class bases, three classes in each year group, accommodating 270 children. The grounds provide a variety of learning opportunities, play areas and an environmental area with pond and gardens.

Our school motto ‘Kindness to yourself, Kindness to others and Kindness to the World’ underpins everything we do. Supporting children to develop an understanding of how to learn and to express and manage the emotions within this is fundamental in supporting them to develop into lifelong learners as well as rounded citizens who will go on to make a positive contribution to society.

Our curriculum reflects the needs of our learners and is built on key principles which include enquiry-based learning, outside learning, mental Health and well-being and values-based approach.
