We are proud to be recognised with the NGA Outstanding Governance Award 2025, reflecting our strong leadership, community values and commitment to every child. At Tealby, we aspire to be an example of the best kind of primary school one that creates great people.
Staff filled with enthusiasm and passion alongside children immersed in a culture of sky-high expectation, relentless learning inside a community of great character. We know that these things can only happen when the whole community comes together and works as a whole. Our school is a family - a family that cares, supports and nurtures.
Allowing for all to be the best versions of ourselves we could possibly be.
