About Pirton School

Pirton School, a small school with a huge heart!

Pirton School is a village school, in the village of Pirton on the outskirts of Hitchin. Our children come from Pirton itself and further afield and from both Hertfordshire and Bedfordshire.  As of February 2026, we have 135 children in our school in 6 classes.

Wrens (22 Reception children)

Robins (14 Year One children) 

Swifts (21 Year Two children)

Kestrels (25 Year Three children)

Falcons (13 Year Four children and 16 Year Five children) 

Owls (7 Year Five children and 18 Year Six children)

I have been the Headteacher of Pirton School since September 2022 and it is a privilege to lead a school with such lively and enthusiastic children. A part of my vision for Pirton School is for it to be the heart of the local community and this is one of the many ways that I intend to continue to develop the school.

I fundamentally believe that to be successful, a child needs to be happy and secure in their school environment. As a school, we are committed to providing a positive, safe and stimulating environment for children to learn, where all are valued. We intend that all children should enjoy their learning, achieve their potential and become independent and lifelong learners.

On our website, Pirton School - A small school with a huge heart, you will find further information about the range of high quality extra-curricular activities such as clubs we offer, alongside other opportunities and experiences such as educational visits. These enhance and further develop our wider curriculum and are part of what makes Pirton such a special place to attend. 

We value our partnership with parents and carers and we welcome your involvement in school life. Each term there will be opportunities to come into school in a variety of ways and I have an open door policy for parents and encourage them to come in to see me and to share any feedback.
