ABOUT ORCHARD LEA JUNIOR SCHOOL


Orchard Lea Junior School is a two form entry junior school situated in Fareham, Hampshire. At present, there are 220 children on roll with eight class teachers, a teaching deputy head and a head teacher. We also have a fantastic support team who work closely to assist the children and teaching staff.
The school is very fortunate to benefit from extensive grounds with two playgrounds, a basketball court, an outside work area, a conservation area and a large field. Recently, we have been working hard with our parents and local community to develop our outside areas. These now include a fire pit and outdoor reading area.
We are committed to providing a safe, secure and stimulating learning environment where each one of our pupils can achieve their potential and flourish academically and socially. We have high expectations of all our pupils and endeavour to nurture their self-confidence and self-esteem so that they can develop to their full potential.
This website aims to give you a taster of the school, as well as providing regular updated information for both parents and pupils.
