Old Hutton Primary School and Pre-School

Primary School
Since the closure of New Hutton's own school in 1946, children of the village attend Old Hutton CE Primary School in the neighbouring parish, and free transport is provided to and from the school.
The school has around 90 pupils in total who are taught in four classes - Reception/Year 1, Year 2, Years 3/4 and Years 5/6 - and has received impressive Ofsted reports. ICT facilities, in particular, are outstanding for a school of this size, and music and sports are also encouraged. All of these activities are indicative of the forward-looking nature of the school, which also encourages close parental contributions and involvement in both in-school and after-school events.
The Headteacher is Mrs Andrea Walker.

Old Hutton Pre-School
Old Hutton Preschool and Nursery provides care to children from the age of 2. We provide a family feel environment to your child, with a focus on nurture, fun and development, within the Early Years Foundation Stage. We have extensive outdoor play including a wildlife zone and incorporate many 'forest school’ approaches believing that learning outdoors helps children to thrive. Our indoor area is well equipped creating a stimulating yet informal and calm 'home away from home’ environment to support pre-school learning..
We are 5 minutes from Oxenholme, Endmoor and Gatebeck, 10 minutes from Natland and Kendal, and 15 minutes from Kirkby Lonsdale with good off road parking .
We offer term time care for all children (9am – 3pm) and can offer extended care to preschool children from 8am-5pm in conjunction with Old Hutton School. Your childcare vouchers can be used as we are grant registered .
Our most recent Ofsted stated that we were ‘good with outstanding features’.
Please give us a ring for more information, or come down and visit us one morning.

Secondary Education
New Hutton children have an excellent choice of state schools - Kirkbie Kendal School and Queen Katherine School, Kendal (free or subsidised transport is available to and from New Hutton).
Queen Elizabeth School (Kirkby Lonsdale), Settlebeck High School (Sedbergh) and Dallam School (Milnthorpe) are also used by a number of children in the parish, though these schools are outside the official catchment area and are therefore subject to the admission and transport policies of the day.
In addition to the state education provision, the independent Sedbergh School and Windermere School are within relatively easy travelling distance. These establishments also provide pre-school and primary education facilities.
