Schools
Loxwood Primary School was reported to have 155 children on the school roll in 2001. However many - typically 30% to 50% of these children are not from Loxwood itself, but from surrounding villages; this has been attributed to the closing of smaller adjacent, village schools. The result is that Loxwood Primary School has thrived with a strong and active group of parents assisting the Teaching Staff in areas such as fund raising. A "pre-School" is adjacent to the school, very strongly supported financially and in other ways by an active Parents group who among other efforts have run a very successful Beer Festival for several years.

Famous quotes containing the word schools:
“In truth, the legitimate contention is, not of one age or school of literary art against another, but of all successive schools alike, against the stupidity which is dead to the substance, and the vulgarity which is dead to form.”
—Walter Pater (1839–1894)
