Facilities & Location

Pupils benefit from great facilities both on and off-site.

Located in a very rural area of north Essex, St. Margaret’s stands proudly in a beautiful parkland setting, bounded by woodland, fields and a private road. The school buildings, formally the coach house and stables of Gosfield Hall, are partly Grade 2 listed and are set in seven acres of grounds.

As well as two classrooms for each year group, St. Margaret’s pupils also enjoy access to a dedicated music room, a science lab, a computer suite, an art room, a sports hall and a well-stocked library. There are three music practice ‘pods’ where children have individual music lessons.

Facilities

A picturesque setting to learn & explore

Our children love to be outdoors, and utilising our wonderful outside spaces. We have two netball courts and two playgrounds, an adventure playground, as well as an enclosed play area for our Early Years children and a pupil designed ‘quiet garden’, an outdoor classroom, and of course, plenty of space for Forest School.

For sports, we ensure the children benefit from a range of designated pitches and tracks that include football, rugby and hockey during the Autumn Term, and cricket, athletics and rounders for Summer.

Extra curricular activities

Beyond the school premises, our pupils enjoy access to a range of excellent sporting facilities. Gosfield Cricket Ground serves as our home ground for thrilling cricket matches, while the Braintree Hockey Club provides a dedicated space for our hockey team's competitive fixtures.

Additionally, our Year 3 pupils benefit from a weekly swimming lesson held at the Halstead Leisure Centre, equipped with a splendid 25-metre swimming pool.

St. Margaret’s is an amazing setting for both children and parents alike. I love the close community the school has.
