Welcome to Pillowell school. We are a small, family-oriented primary school located in the picturesque heart of the Forest of Dean. As a maintained school, we work collaboratively as part of a Federation with Blakeney and Pillowell Schools, ensuring that our staff and pupils benefit from shared resources and expertise.

We pride ourselves on being an inclusive school that offers a safe, nurturing environment for all of our pupils. Our core values - "All different, all equal", "Be the best you can be!", and "Let your colours shine" - are at the heart of everything we do. These values guide our approach to education, fostering a community where each child is celebrated for their unique talents and abilities.

Our small class sizes and mixed-age settings allow us to provide personalised attention and support to every child, helping them to reach their full potential. The children are key to everything that we do and that will never change! We believe that education should be a joyful and enriching experience, which is why we place a strong emphasis on offering a wide range of extracurricular activities, outdoor learning opportunities, and community-based projects.

Whether your child is joining us for the first time or continuing their educational journey, you can be confident that they will receive an excellent education at Pillowell School. Our dedicated team of teachers and support staff work tirelessly to ensure that each pupil is challenged, nurtured, and inspired to be the best version of themselves. We warmly invite you to explore our school and discover how we can provide your child with the perfect start to their educational adventure. Please don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or would like to arrange a visit. 

Mr Chris Forster, Head of Pillowell School
