**** About Manor Primary School
** Manor Primary School are a vibrant and aspirational primary school serving the town of Didcot and the surrounding area. They were the first Primary school in Didcot, built in 1896 and are proud of their history and connection to our town. Their new nursery opened in 2025 and they are delighted to be able to offer nursery places from ages 2 - 4 years.

The team at Manor Primary School pride themselves on high expectations for pupils and this is reflected across all areas of the ambitious and rigorous curriculum, which has been designed and tailored for the school community. They are committed to ensuring that Manor Primary School pupils have a range of academic and pastoral opportunities to support their broader development throughout their time at Manor Primary and have recently been awarded a Gold Award for their social, moral, spiritual and cultural (SMSC) provision.

The school is part of GLF Schools, a multi-Academy trust established in 2012. This enables them to work in partnership with a range of Primary and Secondary schools, including Aureus Primary School and Aureus School, supporting over 17,000 pupils. As part of GLF, they are proud to support all pupils to Grow, Learn and Flourish.

Manor Primary School value all of their children and enable them to grow within their community, developing their sense of personal responsibility, resilience and independence. They believe that every child should be cared for and have the opportunity to aspire, achieving beyond the expected.
