Heads Welcome

Welcome to Urchfont Church of England Primary School, a small village school at the heart of our community. Here, we pride ourselves on providing a nurturing, inclusive, and inspiring environment where every child can flourish academically, socially, and spiritually.

Our school is a place where every child is valued, where curiosity is encouraged, and where learning is an exciting journey. We celebrate each child’s unique talents and abilities, and we work together as a community to help them grow with confidence, resilience, and joy.

At Urchfont, we are guided by our school values of Respect, Compassion, Joy, Perseverance, Wisdom and Courage, which we strive to live every day in everything we do. These values shape the way our children learn, interact, and care for one another, helping them develop a strong sense of responsibility, kindness, and respect. By embedding our values in daily life, we aim to nurture children who are not only confident learners but also compassionate, thoughtful members of our community.

Our guiding principle is drawn from our Bible verse:

“I can do all things through Him who gives me strength.”

This underpins all aspects of school life, inspiring our children to aim high, believe in themselves, and support one another. At Urchfont School, we don’t just teach lessons – we foster a love of learning, a sense of belonging, and a faith-filled foundation that will stay with our children for life.

We hope that as you explore our website, you will get a sense of the warmth, energy, and commitment that makes Urchfont such a special place for children to learn, grow, and thrive while living our values every day.
