About

Welcome to Stanford in the Vale CE Primary School The children, staff and governors of Stanford in the Vale would like to welcome you and your family to our inclusive school.

Stanford in the Vale CE Primary School is a happy and welcoming school community where every child is encouraged to follow the values of love, hope and community, and to work hard to be the best they can be for themselves and for the good of others.

Our passionate and dedicated staff are committed to providing high-quality education that meets the needs of each individual child. We endeavour to foster curiosity and a passion for learning, encouraging children to hold high aspirations for themselves.

At all times, we strive to support and enhance our children's academic, social, emotional, physical and spiritual living and learning. Our vision of working together, achieving together permeates throughout the school. This is supported by our relational approach, which encourages and develops effective behaviours for learning, such as resilience and empathy.
