Pownall Hall School
Tucked away in eight acres of leafy Wilmslow countryside, Pownall Hall School is a place where childhood is celebrated, curiosity is encouraged, and learning comes to life. Welcoming children from six months to 11 years, we are more than just a school - we're a close-knit community of pupils, parents, staff, governors and friends, all working together to create a safe, supportive environment where children can grow in confidence and ability.
Our curriculum is broad, hands-on and full of variety, designed to spark young imaginations and bring out the best in every child. With safeguarding at the heart of everything we do, we aim to give children a joyful school experience - one where they feel known, supported and excited to learn.
Our setting gives us something really special: from our woodland forest school and wildlife pond to the Boddington Theatre, science lab, astro pitch and full-sized sports hall, every space has been designed to inspire. It's a place where children can explore, discover and enjoy being children - every single day.
