WELCOME TO THE PYTCHLEY SCHOOL HOME  PAGE!

The school was founded in 1661 as a Charity School for the children of Pytchley and Broughton. Its benefactor was William Aylsworth, a gentleman farmer of the area, who set up a Trust which continues to support the school today.

 The premises consist of a Victorian Grade II listed building with an extension built in 1974. The facilities include two playgrounds and a grass area. The school is situated largely in the centre of the village off Butchers Lane behind the old school house (now let out to as a private dwelling) in the High Street.

 Pytchley Endowed School is a Church of England Voluntary Aided School and as such enjoys close support from the Diocese of Peterborough. Links with the village church and community form an integral part of school life. 

Including the headteacher there is a total direct teaching staff of 6. These are supported by office, special needs and ancillary staff in addition to other casual staff.

 Whilst providing for children of Pytchley the school also attracts children from the surrounding area giving a total pupil population of 78.

 The school aims and objectives are:-

 To provide a happy, secure and caring atmosphere where each child can achieve their full potential. The school promotes high educational standards, positive attitudes and a stimulating environment where learning is exciting and enjoyable.

 To promote care, respect and responsibility for oneself and others

 To develop an ethos which recognises that all those who learn and work there will be valued, respected and supported.

 To foster strong links with the parents, the parish church and the wider community.
