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.

A great morning of maths in Romney class, finding the volume of shapes and then using isometric paper to draw 3D shapes to show volume. The children asked to do more!
Thank you to the @cumbria_sls for visiting us all today! We loved finding out about the variety of books they had and we would like to say thank you for guiding us, giving us recommendations and finding books we were desperate to read but couldn’t find on the shelf. Always a pleasure to welcome you to Staveley School.
Our next pre-school session is Wednesday 22nd April at 10am. We’ve got a creepy crawly roadshow and some cute lambs to pet as well as some fun activities. No need to book just pop along. If you would like to know more please call 01539 821218. Hope to see you there.
Good morning we are set up and ready for Playgroup. Looking forward to seeing you at 10am!
