Perins School (formerly named Perins Community School and Perin's Grammar School) is an academy, sports college and secondary school in New Alresford, Hampshire, England. The school was founded in 1696 by Henry Perin. [2]
Perins has been a well performing school, achieving GCSE pass rates well above the national average. 72% of pupils obtained five or more GCSES grade C or above including maths and English in 2009, compared with the national average of 47.6%. [3] In 2000, OFSTED reported that pupils' attainment had risen from "above average" to "well above average". In the 2010 OFSTED inspection report it was given outstanding status. In 2013, it was given good status.
The houses used to be named after space shuttles.
However, in 2016, the new headteacher (Steve Jones) added a new house and changed the names of the existing ones. The changes and addition are as follows:
Since 2024, the head teacher has been Mark Nevola. [4]
Cheriton Primary, Four Marks Primary, Ropley Primary, Preston Candover Primary, Sun Hill Junior School and Medstead Primary feed into Perins School.
In 2025, a former teacher at the school was found by the Teaching Regulatory Agency to have sexually assaulted a pupil at the school in 2018. [5] [6] He was banned from teaching. [5] [6]
