St Piran's School, Maidenhead

In its own words: "Choosing a school is one of the most important and significant things we can do for our children. At St Piran's, we understand that the first part of your child's educational career is fundamental, as it's during this time that they develop the skills, knowledge and values that will last a lifetime. We strongly believe 'The Adventure Starts Here'."

From the headteacher's welcome: "Our Early Years Department is closely aligned with the whole school approach and is linked to the Characteristics of Effective Learning in Early Years. At the heart of our teaching philosophy are our Leadership Habits - Motivation, Engagement and Thinking, which guide both how we teach and how children learn."

The school runs after-school care.

Coming up: an open day on Friday 5 February 2027 at 9.15am. Check the school's website before you go, as dates can change.
