Welcome to Meoncross School
A child's educational journey should be as unique as they are. We pride ourselves on our holistic approach whereby every child has the individual attention they need to thrive and succeed both in and out of the classroom. At Meoncross, every child is safe to say ‘I can be the best possible ME’.
We are very proud to be a through school for children aged 2.5 - 16 years, meaning we can welcome children into our school at any point in their educational journey. This could be at a natural key stage transition point such as starting 'big school' in Reception, Juniors in Year 3, or Upper School in Year 7, or anything in between.
Academic achievement is high, but so is our focus on wellbeing, as we know that happy children are high achieving children. We nurture our pupils and develop the characteristics and qualities we know they will need to build bright futures.
Excellent Academics
We were ranked 21st nationally in Times Parent Power Guide in 2025, and we have a proven track record of achieving excellence when it comes to academic results. Our pupils routinely achieve results well above the national average, from our Early Years to key Primary stages and GCSE results.
Holistic Approach
Emotional intelligence is just as important as academic achievement and we want our pupils to be confident, compassionate and capable young people. We believe it’s crucial to develop a child’s character through teaching transferable skills that will help them to thrive in the future.
We Are Meoncross
We have a strong family ethos, and instil a sense of great pride in our school community. We look after, support and encourage each other to always be our best.
At Meoncross, we often talk about the right school being “a feeling”, and in our school film we wanted to convey what a special and unique feeling there is at our school.
We hope you enjoy watching our film, and we look forward to welcoming you to experience Meoncross in person if you would like to find out more.
“Family is our central value and that means we are accepting, that we are kind to each other, we seek to understand and appreciate each other.”

A group of Scholars were very lucky enough to be invited to tour Symetrica, a local company who make devices to detect radioactivity. ☢
The visit included an informative talk on the types of radiation they were able to see, and how the devices were made. They also got an insight into how the factory is designed to operate safely and efficiently. 🏭
The experience was packed with highlights, such as witnessing a car equipped with radiation detection devices and learning about the various locations where both people and vehicles are scanned to ensure the nation’s security. 🔐🌐

We were thrilled to welcome Solomons Alpacas 🦙, where students learned about animal care and how alpacas contribute to a sustainable system.
🏎️ PRF Composite Materials visited us, giving students a chance to explore materials science and advanced engineering. They even saw how composites are used in racing cars and to attempt breaking the world water speed record!
🚀 DT led an exciting rocket-building workshop, with students competing to see whose rocket could travel the furthest. More photos coming soon!
🧪 Specialist teachers delivered workshops on Science in the News, Chemistry Escape Rooms, and The Art of Camouflage, making the day both fun and educational.

An Enriching Experience with Singing Hands 🤝🎶
Some of our Reception and Starfish class were delighted to be invited by Bridgemary Library @gosportdiscoverycentre , to attend a session with the famous @singing_hands duo. 🙌
The children had an amazing time, singing and signing along with them. They loved all the props, in particular the pom poms and Guiro Frog percussion instrument. The session was vibrant, interactive, and engaging, fun for everyone involved. 🎉👋
As a Makaton-friendly school, it was heartwarming to see the children applying the Makaton skills they’ve been learning at Meoncross in action. We even bumped into Helen @makatoncommunityconnect, who trained the staff at Meoncross. ♥
A big thank you to the library for the wonderful invitation and to Singing Hands for such a memorable session.

Year 5 Chocolate Workshop 🍫
Year 5 students had an exciting hands-on experience making chocolate, starting with a cacao pod shipped all the way from St. Lucia! 🌍
The session began with an engaging lesson on the chocolate-making process, where students learned how cacao beans are transformed into delicious chocolate bars. From bean to bar, they explored the fascinating journey of chocolate 🌱🍫
Next, the students worked in teams to create their very own chocolate bars! It was a delicious and educational day that gave them a taste of the real chocolate-making magic!

Meet our Head
I hope it will be clear to you how important our values are to us as a community; we genuinely strive to live by them seeing ourselves as a family where optimism and kindness stand shoulder to shoulder with adventurous opportunities and high academic achievement.
Just like any family, we know that every child has their strengths and their struggles, and we encourage and support them all, whilst genuinely appreciating and understanding the individuals they are.
Only by getting this mix right, can we hope to ensure that all our pupils leave Meoncross ready to flourish in this constantly evolving world of ours.
