iWritten by WhatSchool from official school data (Get Information about Schools, DfE and Ofsted).Brabin's Endowed Primary School, is situated in Chipping – an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Everyone associated with our school shares the same aim, that is, to provide a stimulating, safe and happy environment that allows each individual child to fulfil their potential.
As a school, we recognise the fact that each and every child, who chooses to attend Brabin's, possesses a range and a variety of abilities. Every pupil is encouraged to acknowledge their own strengths and to develop high aspirations for themselves.
From such a basis, all children are motivated to embrace success as well as develop the confidence to make a positive contribution to their community and environment. Brabin's School offers so much! We strive to promote strong links between home and school and, together with the intimacy of a small school, the result is unity between all stakeholders.
