Welcome to Staveley CE Primary School
On behalf of the children, staff and Governors, I would like to welcome you to Staveley CE Primary School.
We are very proud of our village school which stands in beautiful grounds surrounded by hills, fields and trees. We have strong links within the local community and we work closely with St James’ Church situated next door to school.
Our Core Christian Values of Friendship, Respect, Compassion, Thankfulness, Courage and Service are at the heart of everything we do and we are committed to developing a love of learning in all our children.
Our School Vision;
We love to learn. We learn to love, embraces loving one another as Jesus loved us. We strive to recognise our flocks' individual gifts and celebrate these gifts in a caring, loving and Christian environment. We aspire to create a community of hope filled, lifelong learners who are empowered to embrace challenge and can influence positive change in the world.
Our curriculum covers the requirements of the National Curriculum as well as offering our children a wide range of experiences including exciting trips and Residential visits, Outdoor and Adventurous Activity Days, Theme Weeks and the use of our extensive grounds.
Our most recent Ofsted inspection in November 2025 recognised this stating that; "The curriculum is broad, rich and engaging. The school brings the curriculum to life through purposeful experiences linked to pupils’ learning. Staff’s subject knowledge is strong and they present new information to pupils clearly." "The school is ambitious for pupils’ achievement. This extends beyond the curriculum and into all aspects of their development."
We hope the information included on this website gives you a flavour of the special place Staveley CE Primary School is.
If there is anything else you would like to know please do not hesitate to get in touch. If you are a prospective parent we would be happy to take you on a tour, please call the School Office to arrange this.

In week 3 of sewing club we finished our patchwork before next week our cushions come to life! 🪡It’s lovely to see everyone so focused and enthusiastic about sewing, whilst watching them grow in confidence and skill! 🧵👏
Celebrating talent outside of school. Well done to our amazing swimmers who attended Ulverston Spring Swim Fest at the weekend. A real haul of medals and awards. Well done girls 👏🏻 🌟
These three superstars ⭐️ have been inspired by @paulroseexplorer talking about a litter collection project he did many years ago in Lake Windermere where 11 tonnes of rubbish was collected from the lake by a group of divers. #litterpickers #climateaware
We were very lucky this morning to be able to listen to the inspirational diver, explorer and documentary maker @paulroseexplorer He talked to us about his career, a number of projects he has been part of, the impact of plastics on the ocean, what we can do to help and gave us the important message that if we have the right mindset we can do whatever we want. Thanks so much Paul for your time this morning. #inspirational #climate
Yum, yum in our tum! Where does food come from and who helps make it are two questions we are asking this week as part of ‘People who help us’. Today we’ve started the week by making a delicious banana bread. We are going to continue to investigate where all our ingredients came from and we used our brilliant maths knowledge for weighing the ingredients. Great job Jacob Class 👏👏
Another week at Staveley School goes by. World Book Day has to be the highlight of the week - fantastic costumes, orienteering quiz with mixed age groups, parents and carers coming in to share a book, reading outside as it was such a beautiful day, competitions and a themed school dinner - a fantastic day. There has also been after school activity clubs - sewing, gardening and Lego, fruit salad making, science experiments, gymnastic competitions, football tournaments, time outside, recorder lessons and sessions with @niscu.uk about Easter. Another brilliant and busy week ⭐
Come and join us for our next pre-school activity session. There will be lots of Easter themed activities in and around our beautiful grounds. Please contact us if you would like to know more. All pre-school children and their families welcome. #easterfun #preschool
A great afternoon to end the week for Romneys at the Westmorland FA Football Festival! Both teams showed teamwork, sportsmanship and played some excellent football ⚽️ A huge thank you to our parent helpers who joined to help and support our teams👏🏻
This morning for World Book Day, Herdies made the most of the sunshine and took our reading outside into our fantastic school grounds! Everyone loved reading in such a peaceful environment, where they either read to themselves, a friend, or a member of staff. 📚☀️
