The village school for Gweek and Trewennack, Boskenwyn also serves other local communities and draws some children from Helston to its pretty rural situation. The family feeling of the school is complemented by a full range of excellent facilities for children from 4 to 11, with early years and junior classrooms, library, computer and music areas, whilst outside there is a sports field and wild area, as well as a garden and well equipped playground.

There are close links with playgroups in Gweek and Helston, and children can attend regular sessions at school with their parents from age 3 on the Learning Together Programme. From age 4, the Under-5's programme offers part-time school, as a structured introduction to full time school in the term in which children become five. The school is able, due to its two small classes staffed by four dedicated teachers, to focus on the needs of individual children throughout their primary school-days.

Academic results are excellent and in the sporting arena there are football and netball teams. Successful cross-country running, swimming and gymnastics at Swallows gym in Helston. All this work is under-pinned by a positive and energetic PTA, which provides support both financial and emotional!

Constantine Primary School is set on the edge of the lovely village of Constantine and has a friendly, family atmosphere. It has approximately 120 pupils on roll whose ages range from 4-11 years. There are strong links with the pre-school group which is located on site in a new purpose-built eco-friendly building.

The original school building was constructed in 1966. But in 2005 the school was completely tranformed by the addition of new classrooms, library and computer suite. All the existing classrooms have been brought up to modern standards and the old building has been completely refurbished. The school has its own hall, equipped with P.E. apparatus; a new adventure play area; sports field and garden. There is an excellent canteen, fully staffed and equipped to prepare healthy meals on the premises. Classroom accommodation provides ample room for pupils, with splendid views over the Lizard peninsula towards Goonhilly Downs.

Constantine School covers the full national curriculum and offers all that you would expect from a modern primary school. However we are also proud of our "extras". Music is a great strength with singing, private instrument tuition, orchestra and participation in festivals. Our after school clubs are many and varied, changing throughout the year. The school has a strong PTA who organise social and fund raising events for the benefit of the children. The Governing Body take a lively interest in all aspects of school life.

From Constantine School pupils transfer to either Falmouth Community School. Helston School, Penryn College or Mullion School.
