About

I am delighted to welcome you to Ninfield CE Primary School. We are a thriving village school community with happy children, committed staff and supportive families. As members of DCAT (Diocese of Chichester Academy Trust), we benefit from being part of a successful family of local schools.

We have close connections with the local church and village community and are proud of our unique school identity. " The magic of Ninfield School is that you get the community and feel of a village school, with the forward thinking ideas and structure of a large town school, thanks to the new head."

(Parent) We are deeply committed to ensuring that our children are living out our school's vision of 'Growing, Loving, Learning Together' each day so that they can reach their fullest potential. We hold high standards for our children's academic progress, providing the key skills and knowledge needed as the foundation of future learning and success.

We have a history of strong educational outcomes - our 2023 end of Key Stage Two statutory assessment results were well-above national average.

In the school’s own words, from the school website.
