St. Oswald's Primary School is a safe place for all to grow in friendship, body and mind within the foundations of the Christian Faith.

Recognising its historic foundation, the school will preserve and develop its religious character in accordance with the principles of the Church of England and in partnership with the Church at parish and diocesan level.


The school aims to serve its community by providing an education of the highest quality within the context of Christian belief and practice. It encourages an understanding of the meaning and significance of faith, and promotes Christian values through the experiences it offers its pupils.

The school was built in 1996 and opened in January 1997.

There are five class areas. One is a closed classroom with a separate entrance, cloakroom and infant toilet area. Four are in a semi-open plan area. Each class has a large carpeted area that also houses a coat peg alcove. Each class bay opens onto a wide vinyl floored area with four sinks and tables for more practical activities.


There is a good sized hall that is used for physical education, for which there is a generous range of fixed and portable equipment, other curricular activities such as music, collective worship and for dining. A well-resources library is situated between the large open area and the classroom.
In 2005 and ICT suite was built providing computers which can be used by groups or whole classes.

All class areas are well furnished and pupils have access to computer systems, a range of audio-visual equipment and a learner cooker. All classes have fire doors that also provide direct access to the outside learning environment. KS1 classes have access to a fenced area which is used for outdoor learning activities and play.

The school grounds contain a paying field, two hard surfaced areas, a pond and a play-log area. The rest of the grounds have been lawned or planted with trees and shrubs. Mollington Old School Building, which is on our site, houses a Pre-School and a before & after School Club.
