Welcome to Minsterley Primary School, a successful and happy village primary school founded by the Marquess of Bath in 1843. Our school is built on a rich history of providing a positive, safe, and stimulating learning environment. We value all our pupils and encourage them to reach their full potential, become independent and confident life-long learners, and develop self-belief in their own abilities and achievements.
Our Ethos and Values
At Minsterley Primary School, we have three core values that are embedded throughout our school every day: to be ready, to be respectful, and to be safe. These values are reflected in everything we do, from the way we teach and learn to the way we interact with each other. We believe that these values are essential in helping our pupils develop into well-rounded individuals who are equipped to succeed in all aspects of life.

Our school is proud of its beautiful and historic buildings, which have been a home for learning for over 170 years. Our facilities include modern classrooms, state-of-the-art technology, and excellent outdoor spaces. We also have excellent links with Minsterley Parish Church and our community nursery, which is located just next door.
