Andover St Mary's, Test Valley: Schools
Schools
The Andover St Mary's neighbourhood has a decent range of state schools nearby. The special schools really stand out with strong Ofsted ratings, but mainstream primary provision is less consistent.
You'll find around 10 state schools within reach, covering primary, secondary, and special education. There are no private day schools in the neighbourhood itself, though Rookwood School, an independent all-through school, is about 1.6 kilometres away.
The special schools are genuinely impressive. The Mark Way School and Icknield School both hold Outstanding ratings, while Norman Gate School is rated Good.
Mainstream primaries are more mixed. Pilgrims' Cross and Endeavour both need improvement. Andover CE Primary is close by and had a recent inspection in June 2025.
Winton Community Academy, the local secondary, is rated Good.
