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.”

Sports Experience Day with Orchard Lea 🏃♀️🏃♂️
We were delighted to recently welcome pupils from Orchard Lea Junior School for an exciting Sports Experience Day!⭐
The day began with Orchard Lea pupils being warmly welcomed by our Year 5 and 6 children, before the friendly competition got underway with a series of fast-paced activities, including hockey dribbling challenges and an over-under relay, set against the backdrop of our expansive 6-acre Sports Ground.🏑
After some fun throwing games, they took a well-earned break for lunch to refuel. The afternoon brought even more excitement with a lively rounder’s tournament, where teamwork and sportsmanship were on full display.
We closed the day with some high-energy relay races that had everyone cheering from the sidelines. Meoncross won the 4x100m relays 🥇, but it was Orchard Lea who took home the overall win 🏆 - demonstrating outstanding effort throughout the day.
A huge thank you to everyone who helped make the day such a success. And of course, a special thank you to Orchard Lea - we loved having you with us and hope you enjoyed the day as much as we did! 👏

Our Art Scholars enjoyed their annual immersive day at the beach near Lee-on-the-Solent! 🏖️🎨
From drawing the colourful beach huts in their own unique styles to experimenting with panoramic techniques, the day was filled with creativity and exploration. Scholars worked with watercolours, pen, pencil, and marker to try out new forms and mediums.
💬 Charlotte, Year 10, shared: “I enjoyed the immersive day of art because I got to try new techniques and explore drawing the local area.”
Huge thanks to Miss Ansen for her inspiring guidance throughout the day! 🌊🖌️

Bronze DofE Expedition! 🏕️🌲 @dofeuk
One early Saturday in June, 17 pupils split into three determined groups and set off into the New Forest, carrying everything they needed for their two-day Bronze DofE adventure.
From navigating winding woodland paths, to cooking pasta and scrambled eggs on camp stoves 🍳🍝, the teams showed resilience, teamwork, and a great sense of humour - entertaining themselves with A–Z games and litter surveys along the way.
After a night of varied sleep and a long second day across Beaulieu Heath, they were thrilled to hear they had passed 🏅 - and maybe even more excited for a hot shower and a proper meal! 🚿🍽️
Huge congratulations to all Year 10 (and one Year 11!) pupils who completed their expedition, and a big thank you to the teachers and parents who supported them every step of the way!

Our Reception class recently enjoyed an exciting and educational trip to Cumberland House Natural History Museum.
The primary focus of our visit was minibeasts 🐛🦋🕷 - small creatures such as insects, spiders, and other invertebrates. The children were fascinated as they observed these tiny creatures up close and learned about their different features, lifecycles, and roles in the environment.
One of the highlights of the day was spending time in the museum’s beautiful Butterfly House. Surrounded by tropical plants and butterflies 🌻🦋, the children had the opportunity to see these delicate minibeasts in their natural habitat.
It was a wonderful sensory experience that helped reinforce learning about lifecycles and metamorphosis.

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 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.
