Ospringe is a Church of England Primary School with a strong and caring ethos. We are oversubscribed and have 210 pupils on roll taught in 7 classes within our spacious school site on the outskirts of Faversham.
Our Ospringe school family’s Christian ethos: nurture- grow- succeed; is underpinned by Jesus’ mustard seed parable- from the smallest seeds grow the greatest shrubs (Mt13v31-32).
