We have close links with the local church community and the Diocese of Bath and Wells and work closely with East Harptree Primary School as a supportive collaboration of two rural schools. Parental support is good and there is a highly supportive PTA Committee.
Pupils flourish in the school's inclusive and warm ethos. They relish the experiences on offer. Pupils learn well across a range of subjects. They feel safe at school and many say the school is like a ‘second family.’
