Preston and Wingham Primary Schools are located in the beautiful Kent countryside, south east of the city of Canterbury. Both are located in delightful villages and are closely inter-linked with the local community.

Our Federation was formed in 2013. United by common values, the two schools work closely together in a spirit of mutual trust and collaboration. However, both schools retain their own unique identity reflecting their different histories and context.

Preston Primary School is a smaller than average rural school with five classes. Wingham Primary School is a one-form entry village school. Federating has enabled the staff to work together to support each other to enhance their practice and widen the opportunities provided to all of our pupils. This is achieved, for example, through staff planning together, participating in lesson study, undertaking moderation and leading subjects and developments across the federation.

We are continuously reviewing our practice and are committed to working with other schools and professional organisations as we believe that this outward looking approach impacts significantly on the further development our schools.
