The school opened in January 1971 as a one-form entry Primary school to satisfy the needs of the village north of the A329. Winnersh Primary School started with just over one hundred children in a partially completed building. The number of children attending the school has steadily increased as the village of Winnersh itself has grown.

In 2002 the school logo was changed to project the modern image of the school and celebrate the contribution made by Mr Cowley during his 31 years at the school. The design uses the three ‘primary’ colours and the two ‘O’s represent the ‘Outstanding Ethos’ (Ofsted) and the ‘Opportunity’ the school gives to the children. The design also incorporates the letters ‘P’ (Primary) and ‘S’ (School) along with elements that represent Mr Cowley’s achievements at the school.’
