Background:

St Michael's Primary School is a small, rural school situated in the village of Withyham, set in the countryside but within easy access of the towns of Crowborough, Tunbridge Wells and East Grinstead. The original building dates back to 1877 but there have been a number of additions since then. The school has three classrooms equipped with computers, books and teaching resources. The infant classroom has an outdoor play area. The school hall is used for assembly, music, PE and school functions. The grounds are made up of two playgrounds and a large playing field. The school has a nature trail, including a pond, hedgerow and meadow area. The school offers a number of extra-curricular activities ranging from music lessons for the recorder and violin to a variety of sports clubs, a science club and a computer club. The school aims to ensure that children enjoy coming to school and are keen to learn. It encourages a positive attitude and polite considerate behaviour and seeks to ensure that children become both responsive and responsible members of the school community.
