We would like to extend a warm welcome to Vernham Dean Gillum’s Church of England Primary School. Situated at the heart of the village of Vernham Dean, on the Hampshire/Wiltshire border, our school is surrounded by beautiful grounds that provide an ideal setting for outdoor learning. We are incredibly proud of the strong links we have with the local community we serve.

We hope you enjoy exploring our website and that it gives you a clear sense of our ethos. We recognise that every child is a unique individual who deserves to thrive and feel valued within a happy, safe environment built on positive relationships and mutual respect.

Our vision is to develop “Courageous, Compassionate, Creative citizens for the future,” reflecting the high standards and aspirations we hold for everyone in our school community. We celebrate each child’s achievements and, through our engaging, purposeful and creative curriculum, support children to take risks, make informed decisions, solve problems and build resilience - essential life skills for the future.

As a Church of England Voluntary Controlled school, our core Christian values - the 3 Cs: Courage, Compassion and Creativity -are central to everything we do. They underpin our approach to nurturing strong moral values and helping our children grow into thoughtful and responsible global citizens.

We warmly welcome prospective visitors to our school and would be pleased to arrange a visit at your convenience.  We currently have spaces available across all year groups.
