As Executive Headteacher, it gives me immense pleasure to welcome you to our schools website a small window into the vibrant and exciting world of Clarendon Federation. Our school community is a strong, dedicated family, united in our mission to ensure that every child who walks through our doors is given the support, care, and opportunities they need to thrive.
Clarendon Federation is a maintained primary school consisting of an Infant and Junior site. It is situated in the garrison town of Tidworth, Wiltshire. We are proud to serve a wonderful and supportive community, consisting of both service and non-service families.
At Clarendon, we are committed to providing our pupils with the best possible start in life, nurturing their growth and development with a steadfast focus on instilling our values of pride, respect, and a pursuit of success. Nestled close to the breathtaking Salisbury Plain, we feel incredibly fortunate to call this beautiful corner of Wiltshire our home.
Our location not only provides a stunning backdrop for our pupils learning and play but also connects us to the rich history and heritage of the local area.
