Parson Street Primary School is situated on the southern side of Bristol, 2-3 miles from the city centre. It serves part of the Bedminster district, which is predominantly an area of pre-war housing. The school was originally housed in a traditional building dating from 1908.

In 1989 the building was extensively remodelled to update the facilities. This work included the addition of four infant classrooms, a new Reception and Office area and staffroom. A new Music Room was built in 1994. The Language Room has been created, and we also have two additional Elliot Classrooms. We have a Nursery Unit on the site which takes pupils from a wide area. Our facilities include a 15 base computer suite, a library, small learner swimming pool and a separate dinning hall.

The school grounds, whilst not large, do offer a wide range of opportunities for our pupils. In addition to the hard play surfaces we have a much loved adventure challenge area, a conservation area and pond, a shade area, a newly planted copse and extensive seating. The school occasionally uses Marksbury Road playing fields and South Street field for outdoor games and activities.

To see more of the school, take our tour around the buildings and grounds. The school caters for children from 3 - 11 years. The pupil admission number is 58 each year. The Governing Body is committed to maintaining maximum class sizes of 30 for the academic year 2004 / 2005. There are currently 400 children on roll, plus 50 (full-time equivalent) Nursery children. All classes are of mixed ability grouping and are arranged in parallel classes, two per year group.
