It gives me great pleasure to welcome you to Church Broughton C of E Controlled Primary School. We are very proud of our small, rural village school. Our Christian Vision, 'Together We Succeed', underpinned by our core Christian Values of Community, Respect, Perseverance and Wisdom, really does sum up what we are all about.
We are a community which cares about every member within it, we believe that every child deserves the very best education and every child should be enabled to succeed, not just academically, but socially and emotionally too. As a Church of England School, we have strong links with St. Michael and All Angels Church, located within our village.
The close proximity means that our children make regular visits, to celebrate various dates in the Christian calendar as well as using it to learn more about the Christian faith.
Our most recent SIAMS (Statutory Inspection of Anglican and Methodist Schools) inspection (2020) graded us 'Good' in all areas – an outcome we are very proud of as we feel it represents our care of, and commitment to, the children in our school.
