Education
Milton Parochial Primary School in Green Street had 110 pupils in 2007, a large proportion of which were from the southern area of Northampton such as Hunsbury. The most recent Ofsted inspection, published 4 November 2010 stated: This is a good school. The pupils make good progress and achieve well because the teaching is effective. Crazy 4 Kids After School and Holiday Club is privately owned located in the grounds of the Primary School. Children have access to the school hall, adjoining quiet room and a secure outdoor play area. The club is open each weekday from 3.30pm to 6pm and from 8am to 6pm during the school holidays. The most recent Ofsted report on the club states that: Overall the quality of the provision is good. The village is in the catchment area of Campion Secondary School at Bugbrooke, about 6 miles (10 km) away by road with the children bussed daily.

Famous quotes containing the word education:
“Columbus stood in his age as the pioneer of progress and enlightenment. The system of universal education is in our age the most prominent and salutary feature of the spirit of enlightenment, and it is peculiarly appropriate that the schools be made by the people the center of the day’s demonstration. Let the national flag float over every schoolhouse in the country and the exercises be such as shall impress upon our youth the patriotic duties of American citizenship.”
—Benjamin Harrison (1833–1901)
“Very likely education does not make very much difference.”
—Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
“Law without education is a dead letter. With education the needed law follows without effort and, of course, with power to execute itself; indeed, it seems to execute itself.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
