The Pilgrim School is a Church of England primary academy located in Rochester, Medway, catering to mixed-gender pupils aged 3 to 11. With a current enrolment of 219 students, the school operates above its planned capacity of 210. The school’s ethos is rooted in the teachings of Jesus, focusing on compassion, inclusivity, and character development through its "Pilgrim Attributes" programme, which encourages students to reflect on their choices and personal growth.

The school day begins with a breakfast club at 7:45 a.m., followed by nursery and primary sessions starting at 8:45 a.m. The school places a strong emphasis on attendance and communication with parents regarding absences. Admissions for the reception class are managed by Medway Council, with a supplementary information form required for those applying under the church denomination preference.

The Pilgrim School fosters a supportive community environment, encouraging parental involvement through events and a Parent-Teacher Association (PTFA). The school is committed to nurturing each child's potential, ensuring they thrive academically and socially within a caring framework.
