About

At Yarlet we strive to create and maintain an environment in which all children are happy, secure and challenged to achieve their personal best in all areas of school life. Children attend Yarlet between the ages of 2 and 13, when they leave as confident, responsible young adults who have learned the importance of excellent behaviour, good manners and respect for others.

We place great emphasis on an all-round education which allows children to discover and develop their individual talents be they academic, sporting, artistic or musical. The wonderful grounds, 33 acres of them, give Yarlet children space to breathe, explore and discover.

They are also home to the games fields, astro-turf pitch, sports hall and swimming pool, which are used and enjoyed by all the children. A family atmosphere prevails at Yarlet, the heart of which is a positive, nurturing relationship between pupils and staff; teachers know their pupils exceptionally well and have high expectations across the board.

Our open door policy ensures that parents also have an opportunity to be fully involved and their input is greatly valued.
