Building Update

The contractors moved onto the site in August and the work is going well. For regular updates and photos of progress, please visit the New Building page.

Academy Update

As you will know, the government is encouraging schools such as ours to apply for Academy status. The governing body set up a working party to consider the differences and implications and the background to this may be found in our weekly newsletter of February 22nd.

At a meeting of the Full Governing Body on 13^th March there was a unanimous vote to take the next step in applying  to the Department for Education to become an academy. The proposal is to join other primary schools in the area as part of the OPEN umbrella trust.  Other schools in the group are:

Ladygrove Park Primary School, Didcot

Manor School, Didcot

St John's Primary School, Wallingford

Willowcroft Community School, Didcot

This does not mean that a final decision for Cholsey to become an academy has been made. We will be consulting with all our stakeholders over the next few months. More information will be included on our Academies page very soon.
