About Airthrie
The Airthrie community prides itself on its homely and caring atmosphere, and the individual attention given to each child. We place great emphasis on providing a nurturing environment where children can discover the joy of learning and grow into purposeful, enthusiastic, confident and friendly pupils.
We provide a broad and creative curriculum, where languages, ICT, music, art, drama and sport of all kinds are a regular feature. With a strong focus on small teaching groups and one-to-one teaching, each child’s strengths are rapidly identified and encouraged. As no two children are the same, flexibility and differentiation are a priority.
The school comprises two linked Victorian houses, which have been sympathetically modernised and extended to accommodate an average of 170 pupils.Out-of-doors the children really enjoy our playground and garden, which includes a tree-house and pirate ship. We also have our own pets' corner with rabbits, chickens and ducks.
We foster an excellent relationship with our neighbouring school, The Cheltenham Ladies' College, and fully utilise their excellent sports facilities, all just a short walk away. These include a 25m Olympic sized swimming pool, hockey and netball courts, and playing fields. Find out more about each stage of your child’s journey at Airthrie.
