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.

The Swaledales had a fabulous morning with Emily down at The Growing Circle in The Field. We played with bubbles planted nasturtiums, hunted for different fruits and vegetables, tasted flower petals and were let loose in the fruit bushes! Blackcurrants are our favourite! We finished off by harvesting some garlic, making flat breads and then turning our garlic into garlic butter to make garlic bread. It was amazing, thank you so much Emily. 🌿🍏🌼
Jacob class have had a brilliant afternoon swimming again and this time everybody put their face in the water. Fantastic job, well done to all our superstars ⭐️
